STATUETTE (Butt). (Harlekin x Crinklette). (218) Clear medium yellow with a 
diffused purple red throat mark. Not quite as heavily ruffled as the other Butt small 
flower varieties but the florets are probably smaller than any of the others, not being 
over 2% inches. Of the 19 to 21 florets, 6-7 are open at once. The florets are well 
arranged. The always straight spike has a flowerhead about 18 inches to 19 inches 
and a total height of 40 inches to 42 inches. This variety is the ultimate in daintiness 
and charm. Spikes of the variety were flown to England for the big National Garden 
show where it was given an award of merit. 
Price—Any size bulb, $5.00 each, 12 for $50.00. No bulblets sold this year.
