; GOLDEN FLUTE — Joseph M. Hartman 
Last. year we had the pleasure of introducing Golden Flute for ‘Mr. 
Hartman. We are offering it again this year—with more winnings 
to add to its glory. 
A heavily textured light yellow with a rose stripe on a medium 
deep yellow lip petal. Florets are large. up to 7’, they are beautiful- 
ly ruffled, waved and fluted—not only do they grow that way for 
Mr. Hartman, but for others too. There were a number of them at 
the shows this year that were stiff competition to any one. 
Golden Flute will reach about 60” in the field, with a long flower 
head up to 28’. It thas 16 to 18 buds with seven to eight open at one 
time, and with about four more in color. The spike is balanced well. 
in spite of the large sized florets. Attachment is very good for the 
large sized florets. Foliage is tall, heavy and very healthy. 
Golden Flute classifies as 511, and it is a cross of Shirley Temple 
and Grand Opera. Bulblet production and germination is fair.
