Sun Spot in Canada 
“Another season is past and your 
SUN SPOT has added more wins to 
its great show record. Its ability to 
open at once 8 or 10 beautiful well- 
placed florets and to hold them all in 
perfect condition for an unusually 
long period is outstanding. 
At the Province of Quebec show 
held at Montreal, August 24th and 
25th (1949), SUN SPOT won Cham- 
pionship Recent Introduction for us, 
grown from a medium bulb, as we 
had no large left this year. 
At the Hawkesbury District show 
Aug. 20th, a spike of SUN SPOT ex- 
hibited by one of our customers, R. J. 
Stevens, won Best Spike in the novice 
section and Reserve Champion spike, 
also the special award for longest 
flowerhead in the show. 
Another customer of ours, Mrs. J. 
T. McDonald, won first in color class 
in the amateur section, and the spec- 
ial for the spike with most open 
florets in good condition, on her entry 
ae ORONO ke 
The third spike of SUN SPOT ex- 
hibited there we showed, and it won 
its class in the Recent Introduction 
section. Such wins are a_ grand. 
achievement for any variety, and you 
as the originator may well feel 
proud.”

(Note: Sydney has been a booster 
for SUN SPOT since 1947 when he 
showed the spike that won 2nd Day 
Championship at Montreal. The spike 
pictured on this page is Mr. Stevens’ 
prize entry mentioned above—in mak- 
ing the engraving we had to cut out 
of the picture the top 5 buds. This 
year another Canadian man, Leonard 
Butt, won the Grand Championship 
of the Canadian National show with 
a beautiful spike of SUN SPOT.)
