DESCRIPTIVE LIST 
(L means large; M means medium; S means small; Blbts. means 
bulblets.) 
ABU HASSAN (378) Holland ‘47 (77) 
A deep rich violet blue glad. Very much like Pelegrina in color but 
an improvement on that variety in that it does not crook. A few 
spikes of this in a mixed bouquet of glads adds much to its beauty. 
Very popular. 
L 12c: M 2-15e; S 5-15c; Blbts. pkg. 25c 
ADORATION (466) Klein ‘48 (75) 
An early pink orchid with a creamy throat. Adoration has a lovely 
pastel color that blends well with other flowers. Bulblets grow ex- 
tremely well and make mostly large bulbs. 
L 12c; M 2-12c; S 5-15c: Blbts. pkg. 25c 
ALL GLORY (421) Toon ‘46 (75) 
A novel color of deep tangerine orange with royal purple throat blotch 
overlaid with cerise with distinctive cerise rib down center of lower 
petals. Holds about 8 nicely ruffled 5-inch florets open. 
L 12c; M 2-15¢; S 4-15c; Blbts. pkg. 25c 
A. L. STEPHEN (433) Windsor ‘42 (85) 
Orange pink with a rea throat blotch. Opens 6 good sized blooms on 
a tall spike. One of the better blotched varieties. Very much in de- 
mand last year. 
L 15c; M 10c; S 3-15c; Blbts. 10-20c 
ASTRID (560) Jack °46 (77) 
Clear medium rose that will open about 6 ruffled blooms. A bright 
attractive shade that everyone admires. Each year this continues to 
make a more favorable impression on us and we feel sure will be 
grown im quantity as a cutflower when better known. 
L 15c:; M 10c: S 3-15c; Blbts. 10-15c; 100-$1.00 
ATHENE (400) Kuhn ‘49 (75) 
Outstanding white shading to cream throat. Will hold 10 open on 54 
inch spike with 20 to 22 buds. Has been enthusiastically accepted by 
growers everywhere. Looks like a double-barreled hit fer both show 
and commercial use. 
L $1.50; M $1.00; S 50c; Blbts. 2-30c 
AUREOLE (412) Pruitt ‘48 (80) 
A clear ruffled fairly dark yellow. Holds about 6 open. Good propa- 
gator. Fine cutflower prospects. You would admire the floret shape 
and ruffling of Aureole in any other color but it is especially w=! 
come in a yellow. 
L 12c: M 2-12c; S 5-15c; Blbts. pkg. 30c 
BEAUTY’S BLUSH (440) Fischer ‘47 (85) 
As the name suggests it is a blush white with a A hee: pink under- 
tone. A seedling of Margaret Beaton it seems to have inherited the 
vigorous tall growth of that variety. It will open 7 flat well attached 
florets. A planting of this that bloomed in the cool fall weather this 
year gave us the beautiful sparkling color that gave this variety its 
name.

like Lav. Prince, but with rounder more beautiful florets. Received 
top rating at the 1949 West Virginia Test Garden.
