brilliant and very attractive. Very 
deep salmon pink with an almost black 
red brush on clean white throat, very

we were amazed to see a floret grown 
by Mrs. Kidd of Newmarket, Ont., over 
7% inches. Opens up to 8 in field, 9-11 
when cut, 20-21 buds. Plant growth 
is vigorous and foliage stands 30-36
