GENE (Farrington-49) 510-80 
Intensely ruffled medium yellow with excellent placement. 
Will open 6-8 florets and sometimes more, that are closely 
attached and placed beautifully on the stem. This is a 
marvelous advance in the yellow group. 
GRACE DARLING (narris-43) 460- 
A lovely blend of rosy pink and white. Tall grower, up to 
60 inches, and will open eight 5-inch florets on a 26-inch

GRATITUDE (Fischer-46) 424-75 
Improved Barcarole. Salmon-orange with a sharp yellow 
throat. Will open 5-7 on a tall spike. Florets 54% inches 
in diameter. Growing habits excellent. 
GWEN ((Pickwell-Moses-49) 560-80 
Reports from our customers confirm our statement that 
Gwen is fragrant. This beautiful light rose will grow tall 
and straight and will open 6-8 beautiful florets that will 
stand handling and will win on the show table. It cuts 
100% usable spikes and is offered not for its fragrance but 
for its beauty and usability. Destined to be a very fine 
commercial.

scarlet self. 7 inches in diameter, round florets, 6-7 open

ment, heavy substance and velvety texture. Very tall plant 
with deep green and healthy foliage. Very good propagator.

its nice form and growing habits.
