Variety 
PFITZER’S CENTURY (Hundert Jahre Pfit- 
zer-’47) 436-85 
A light scarlet red named in honor of the 
100th year of the Pfitzer firm. Opens 7-8 on 
tall spike. 
PHANTOM BEAUTY (Bastian-’47) 440-85 
A beautiful new pastel pink. Will open up to 
12 florets which are nicely attached on a long 
flower head. Produces many bulblets which 
grow easily, making large percentage of large 
bulbs first year. 
PICARDY (Palmer-’31) 530-90 
Still the most popular variety grown and most 
widely known by commercial and amateur 
growers. A tall salmon-pink. More widely used 
by the hybridists than any other variety. 
PINK RADIANCE (Quackenbush-’41) 440-85 
Our best commercial pink. A delicate shade 
which is very nice for wedding work. In great 
demand by the florists. Opens 11 on a 24” 
flower head. 
POLYNESIE (K & M-’50) 530-85 
A pure salmon—deeper than Picardy. Has yel- 
low throat with salmon blotch. Opens 8-10 
florets at one time. Extra heavy texture, 
slightly ruffled. We are inclined to believe 
this will take the place of Picardy, both for 
exhibition and commercially. 
PORCELAIN BLUE (Rich-’44) 478-90 
Medium dark violet pansy-blue with a clean 
creamy white throat feather. Large, wide 
open blooms. Opens five. Bulblet germination 
fair. Looks like a very promising blue. 
PURPLE SUPREME (Wilson-’42) 470-85 
Outstanding medium purple with silver edge 
on petals. Grows very tall, shoulder high plants 
and will open 10 at one time on long flower 
head. 
QUEEN BESS (Kreig-’48) 401-80 
Slightly recurved round 5” florets of clear 
white that has fuchsia blotch on the lip petal 
making nice contrast. Opens 6 with 6 more 
showing color. Growth is uniform and the 50” 
spikes are nice and straight. Heads average 
25% 
QUIBERON Errey-’49) 416-85 
A creamy apricot pink. Of fine texture and will 
open up to 9 florets on nice tall spike. A good 
one from New Zealand. 
RAVEL (K & M-’47) 477-77 
Violet-blue with reddish brown marking in 
throat. Fine growing habits and excellent 
propagator. Opens 8-9 florets of heavy tex- 
ture. Placement very good. Fine addition to 
this color class.
