* Deepest red so far 
* Holds its color 
* A profuse bloomer 
We have tested and compared Red King extensively 
and it certainly out-distances all others in this color class, 
from my way of judging. The picture above bears out 
my statement. A robust plant that will reward you by 
increasing quickly, yet always remaining neat and com- 
pact. Easy to bloom, always six or more buds and flowers 
per stalk, held well above the foliage. 
Red King holds its color evenly (but it’s not a true 
crimson-red of course), a smooth jewel-like garnet- 
claret to wine shade, with no markings to mar its beauty. 
Young plants are covered with flowers. Truly an aristo- 
cratic thing and the BEST of all “reds.” 
We sell new varieties for those who want the latest sorts and also the exquisite 
kinds that are just a few years older which have stood the test of time, and 
priced lower. You can rely on our descriptions!

packing was just grand, and my plants arrived before the snow. They were so 
nice and fresh that my neighbors would hardly believe they came from such a 
distance’ . . . Mrs. S.K.A., Missouri
