PERIWINKLE 
$2.00 
(exquisite light blue) 
Of the thousands of seedlings which bloomed during 
the winter of 1947, Periwinkle (then unnamed) proved 
most outstanding, and was selected according to rigid 
standards of color quality, petal substance, free blooming 
qualities and dependable habits. 
Periwinkle was one of my introductions last year, and 
we are very pleased with our stock. The exquisite light 
blue flowers have a white eye and a lighter edge on the 
petals. The blossoms are produced freely and are held 
well above the foliage, in clusters, each flower measuring 
up to 13/,” across. It is accurately pictured above. 
We know you'll love Periwinkle, the first seedling we 
selected for naming and introducing to you.
