BLESSED DAMOSEL (440) Baerman ‘44 (95) 
A nice shade of glowing pink. Will open up to 8 
round heavily textured florets on a medium height 
spike. Good growing habits but makes rough look- 
ing bulbs. 
BLUE BEAUTY (476) Pfitzer ‘36 (75) 
An older variety that is still very popular. It opens 
up to 6 wide open blooms of medium shade of 
violet. Always a good seller. 
BLUE BONNET (476) Beardmore °48 (80) 
An attractive medium shade of blue with a rosy 
red throat marking. Color is pure and clean and 
has shown no signs of flecking. Opens up to 7 
florets of regular placement on a medium height 
stem. Good propagator and average germinator. 
Will be a heavy winner on the show table. 
BLUE LAGOON (478) Snyder ‘46 (70) 
Probably the tallest and most vigorous growing 
Blue. It opens up to 6 well placed florets of dark 
violet, just a shade darker than Blue Beauty. Much 
taller and healthier than Blue Beauty. Good in- 
creaser and germinator. 
BOISE BELLE (343) Roberts ‘48 (98) 
A heavily ruffled variety of unique beauty. It will 
open up to 12 leathery textured florets of pink and 
yellow with yellow centers. Practically all the re- 
maining buds will show color. It produces a goodly 
number of rather small bulblets that germinate and 
grow exceedingly well. Very robust and healthy. 
The demand for Boise Belle has been heavy ever 
since its introduction and the stock is not large. Al- 
most a sure winner in the 300 class, Boise Belle was 
Section Champion four times for us this year at the 
following shows: Champaign, Ill.; Columbus, Purdue, 
and Wabash, Indiana. 
BOLDFACE (533) Evans ‘47 (80) 
This strikingly blotched variety attracts attention 
whether on the show bench or-in-the garden. It 
opens up to 7 huge florets of deep salmon with a 
throat marking of deep red on white. Strong, tall 
grower. Good propagator and grower from bulblets. 
Boldface was Grand Champion at the Indiana State 
show this year (1950). 
From Bethel, Connecticut— 
I want to tell you Citation was most beautiful.

Also Blue Bonnet and Evangeline. I 
bought a unit of Evangeline and I don't think I made any mistake, it’s just wonderful. 
You sent me a Chief Pontiac which was most beautiful in its size and color class.
