PALE PRIMROSE (W. 1946) No. 4057 
(HAPPY DAYS X MIDWEST GEM). 
Late, 38 inches. Cool primrose yellow 
with a touch of wax yellow at the haft. 
The color is not so unusual, but the form 
of the flower is most distinctive. It is 
oval, with standards tightly closed and 
swirled at the top; the falls are long but 
so wide they nearly touch each other. 
The effect is of a huge yellow rose bud. 
It comes late and extends the season at 
least two weeks. Growth and blooming 
habits good. $1.00, 3 for $2.00 
PATHFINDER (Whiting 1948) No. 4240 
(MIRABELLE X ANGELUS). Midsea- 
son, 36 inches. This is a blend, but it has 
more true pink tones than any we have 
seen. The blooms are very wide and full, 
of extremely heavy substance, and glis- 

ROCKET 
tening texture. The branching is close 
but the stems are strong; the plants are 
rugged and prolific of bloom and _ in- 
crease. H. M. 1948. $20.00 
PINK CORAL (W. 1949) No. 4645 
(MIRABELLE X CEDAR ROSE). M. 34 
inches. Warm coral pink with amber yel- 
low center. Smoothly blended, near self. 
Strong, hardy plants. $10.00 
PRISCILLA (W. 1942) No. 39142 (PUR- 
ISSIMA X BLUE WAVES). Midseason, 
30-36 inches. A very pure white iris that 
wins friends everywhere. Of modest size 
and height, it owes it popularity to its 
purity and its pleasingly rounded form. 
Cool, clean of all markings of color in 
haft or beard, it is known as the really 
pure white iris. H. M. 19438, Per. R. 87, 
1944, A. M. 1947. Sym. 1946-47-48-49.
