INNOCENCE (Reiter)—Here is a near white 
fuchsia that can take it. We have found 
it outstanding in its willingness to bloom 
and its resistance to unfavorable condi- 
tions. This fuchsia is not offered as a 
white fuchsia nor as a variety producing 
exceptional individual flowers, but as a 
variety unsurpassed for its brilliancy and 
performance in the garden. The dense 
bushy plant is covered with small leathery 
foliage of fine green quality, and it is 
festooned with a continuous and unpar- 
alleled profusion of flowers. The double 
flowers are medium sized, semi double 
with spreading, glistening white petals and 
upturned horizontal sepals of palest rose 
deepening to crimson at their base. 
LACE PETTICOATS (Tiret)—Patent applied 
for. Double corolla, white; tube and broad, 
heavy outspread sepals white. Corolla is 
composed of large central petals, sur- 
rounded by smaller ones that are attached 
to the base of the sepals, and are spread 
out horizontally as the sepals curve up. 
Most petals are serrated, inside of sepals 
and petals are faintly shot with palest 
blush, enhancing an otherwise all-white 
large double fuchsia. Quite vigorous up- 
right grower. In warm sections, flowers 
will show more pink unless kept in shade. 
MINUET IN G (Evans)——Double white faintly 
blushed, short tube and sepals white. Un- 
derside of sepals soft pink. Medium up- 
right grower. 
OLD SMOKY (Schmidt)—Double corolla old 
~ rose with smoky cast. Medium tube and 
outspread sepals flesh color, underside of 
sepals pink. Strong grower with somewhat 
pendant branches and medium large 
leaves. Extra large flowers. Novel color- 
ing distinguishes Old Smoky from all other 
fuchsias. Hanging basket type. 
TRAIL BLAZER (Reiter)—Patented. One of 
the best basket type fuchsias. It may be 
compared to Red Spider in every way ex- 
cept that the corolla is long, large and 
double. Corolla magenta, sepals recurved 
and a shade lighter. 
TUTU (Reiter)—A small branching bush with 
small, thick, leathery foliage. Has proved 
surprisingly sun tolerant for a flower in 
the Flirtation color range, and in addition 
the flowers have proved of exceptional 
size and substance. The large, flat, double 
flowers have densely spreading irregularly 
lobed petals of pale Rhodamine purple 
flecked with pale Aster violet. The spread- 
ing sepals are palest rose inside and green- 
ish white outside. Ideal for pot work 
because of its dense growth and large 
flowers, and unconditionally recommended 
to lovers of delicate coloring in fuchsias. 
VIOLETTA (Schnabel)—Large bell-like single 
flowers of Bishop’s violet with a_ light 
blotch at the base of each petal. The well 
recurved slim sepals are ivory white form- 
ing a sharp contrast to the deep violet 
petals. In the mature flowers, the color 
changes to orchid purple, but the glisten- 
ing sepals retain their whiteness until the 
entire flower fades. A vigorous upright 
and free blooming fuchsia.
