LILAC PAGEANT 
In color a redder version of the old standard variety Rose- 
Anna, however, a considerably larger flower, of different shape 
and, unlike that variety, the stems hold the flowers well above 
the foliage. Its six petals are rather heavily veined and uni- 
formly sanded amethyst violet to violet purple with a center 
of solid mulberry purple. It is a flower of drooping, loose 
hanging form though not ungraceful. Stems are strong but 
not so well branched, 41 in. high. Late midseason and florifer- 
ous. Stock limited. $20.00 each 
FLYING CRANE 
A medium size three petal, airy, graceful flower of medium 
coloring. The falls have a light basic color with heavy radiating 
veins of royal purple, a lightly sanded halo and very light 
uniform sanding of same color between veins. The small 
spatulate shaped standards are Rood’s violet delicately edged 
white and the styles are royal purple in color. The falls 
straight hanging from mid-length and the graceful poise of 
flower on stem suggest a crane in flight. 45 in. tall and a good 
bloomer in early midseason. A distinctive and lovely flower. 
No stock available this season. $22.50 each 
ROYAL SAPPHIRE 
A medium to large size three petal open formed flower of 
bright royal purple with a small white halo and broadened

falls. The small standards are white with a distinct border 
of pansy violet and are held cup shape. Styles are pure white 
with prominent royal purple tips. A flower of very definite 
coloring and sharply defined markings. Strong stem 44 in. 
high with two long branches. Early midseason bloomer. 
$22.50 each 
PRINCESS AURORA 
This is a very large three petal flower of lively orchid pink 
coloring—light amparo purple to pale amparo purple. Sur- 
rounding the large signal patches a bright halo of light violet 
blends far out onto petals. The broad falls are overlapping and 
are held stiffly flaring. The long standards are of same color and 
are held upright. The smooth finished, highly refined flowers 
of waxy substance are carried on large, strong stems 46 in. 
high with fine branching. An early and excellent bloomer. 
$25.00 each 
SWIRLING WAVES 
A large six petal flower of bright medium blue general 
effect of horizontal type with much ruffled and waved petals 
and with the dark violet, serrated styles forming a ball like 
crested center. Falls are light with veins of royal purple 
and have stiff substance and glistening texture. Flowers are 
borne on strong stems 49 in. high and are rather widely 
branched. The name well describes the unusual character of 
this delightful flower. Midseason bloomer. Ilustrated on cover.
