RED WING (Wright 48) 5° Dave 536 
‘Excellent this year for us, and also for many others as there were quite a 
few very nice spikes at the shows. A scarlet red, rich and vibrant with 
- color, excellent growth, tall and straight, every one of them. There is a 
deep scarlet blush on the lower petals. Florets are just within the 500 limit, 
and are slightly recarved—somewhat ruffled. Opens about 8, with 6 buds in 
color and 20 to 24 igtal. A good show flower and a coming commercial. 
L $2.50, M $1.75, S $1.00, B 1-25c, 10-$2.00, 100-$16.00 
RELIANT (Krueger 48) — 115 Days 500 
Its main talking point is its huskiness. White, with a rather poor throat 
blotch of cream and tan. 6” florets, 6 to 8 open but the top of the spike 
does not stretch enough to make a balanced spike when the first florets open. 
- Will open to the top however. Giant in size as far as the general plant is 
concerned, both the circumference of the spike and the plant itself are big. 
Might be a good one to use for hybridizing where one is working for a 
husky plant. Good propogator. Late. 
L 75c, M S0c, S 25c, B 3-25c, 10-75c, 100-$6.00 
RIO RITA (Lins 41) | 95 Daya 523 
A pretty light orange with a scarlet blotch in the center, @ very good con- 
trast. Opens 6 to 8 florets, somewhat ruffled on a good stem. Good com- 
mercial and a good show flower. Burns in bright sun. |

_ROMANY (Youmans 45) > 80 Days 481 
Like most smokies, Romany is a good performer. A strawberry with a blue 
and red blotch, that produces a strikingly beautiful result. 6 open on a good 
spike. :
