yellow throat, yellow midribs, field 
height 63’’, opens 7 on a 19 bud spike 
with 30’’ flowerhead. Floret size 5347’. 
Pav. 2One Wie. 20 PsclO) 1 0-.50; 
PICARDY 530, Salmon, greatest variety 
in existence. We feel we have the 
healthiest stock grown anywhere. L .10; 
3-.25; M .08; 4-.25; S .04; 8-.25. 
PINOCCHIO (Evans) 390. A novelty of 
green-orange and yellow. Heavily ruf- 
fled. Very choice. L .10; 3-.25; M .08; 
3-.20; S 2-.15. 
POET’S DREAM (Fischer) 366. Clear 
light lavender blending into a creamy 
throat. Opens 6 round, heavily ruffled

strong stems. L .10; M .08; S .05. 
PRESTIGE (Winsor-Moseley) 4380. Soft 
shade of salmon pink shading to cream 
throat without markings. The florets

with all the buds showing color. Our 
most popular cut flower. L .10; 3-.25; 
M .08; 3-.20; S .06; 3-.15; B 100-.75. 
PURPLE SUPREME (Wilson) 470. Prob- 
ably the best and most popular of the 
Wilson purples and surely the tallest in 
this .color class. Ih 105: M .08; S_ .05; 
B 10-.25; 100-.75. 
RAVEL (477) (K. & M. ’46). Here is our 
eandidate for being the most vigorous 
blue ever introduced. A block of No. 5’s 
last summer gave us hundreds of spikes 
as large and as tall as many varieties 
would have produced from large bulbs. 
Ravel, a medium-deep blue enhanced by 
a garnet tongue, readily opens 8 large, 
round, flat-open florets on bamboo 
spikes. The color is good for a blue, 
though not as flawlessly smooth as that 
of the smaller and lighter Better Times. 
Ravel is in the heaviest demand of all 
the blues. L .15; M .10; S .08; B pkg. .25. 
RED CHARM (Butt) 452. Early mid-sea- 
son. A charm of red, indeed, and a very 
important variety. Opens a generous 
number of bright, round, well placed 
florets on tall, willowy spikes. L .10; 
3-.25; M .08; 4-.20; S .05; 5-.20. 
RED VELVET (452) (Johnston-Bastian 
52). About same color as Red Charm 
but color has more sheen and sparkle. 
A very healthy grower, will open 6 on 
long strong stem. Good propagator and 
germinator. Red Velvet bulbs keep well 
in storage, which is unusual for a dark 
red. We like everything about Red 
Velvet and we think you will too. 
L 1.00; M .75; S .60; B 5-1.00.

RED WING (436) (Wright ’48) (85 days) 
(Seedling x Red Charm). This glad has 
won more plaudits than any other red 
in recent years. Produces campanile 
spikes with 8-10 54-inch florets open 
at a time. Color is a glossy light scarlet- 
red, almost a self. Round florets, a hght 
ruffling, and in general a fresh-out-of-a 
bandbox air complete a most fetching 
ensemble. L .50; M .35; S .25; B 10-.40. 
REGAL RED (Fischer) 536. A king-size 
scarlet. Six-inch florets is far better 
than might be expected. Opens 5 to 6 
of these giant blooms at a time. We 
strongly recommend this pulse-quicken- 
ing scarlet. A most beautiful scarlet.
