PACTOLUS 417 (K and M ’47) Pactolus vies with General Eisenhower as the most popular 
European introduction. Color is that of an apricot peach, blending into a rich orange 
red throat. It opens 8 beautifully ruffled, flat, round blooms. Pactolus is a must-have 
in any garden.

PATRICIAN 566 (Scheer 47) Patrician may be described as a lavender self the identical 
shade of deeper tones on the edges of the petals of Minuet. It opens 6 to 7 florets of 
nearly 6-inch diameter with 3 to 4 buds in color, on a strong, straight, formal spike. 
The florets are round, wide open and perfectly placed. It is a tremendous propagator 
of quite small sized bulblets, making mostly small bulbs the first year. Patrician 
appears to be a long step ahead in the lavender section. Patrician got off to a bad 
start in some sections of the country due to virus in some stocks. My bulbs of Patrician 
are absolutely free of this disease. Its heavy propagating qualities warrant a price 
reduction this year to a point where all can now enjoy it.

PHAROAH 530 (Higgins ’50) This plain petalled medium salmon pink is one of the 
strongest growers and excells in consistency in the production of representative spikes. 
For this reason it is highly recommended for a commercial pink.

PINK CLASSIC 540 (C. and G. Melk ’51) Pink Classic is a heavily ruffled and fluted pink,

height, spikes carry 20 buds opening 7 to 8, five and one-half inch blooms with 8 more 
in color. Bulblet production and germination are excellent; blooming date is about 82 
days. Pink Classic is an excellent show glad as well as a commercial. It has the style

mercial purposes.

REBOUND 462 (Wesselman 59) A strictly commercial, very vivid and very early deep 
rose. The 5-inch florets have good attachment; the spikes carrying 16 to 18 buds will 
open 6 to 8 florets. It makes plenty of easy germinating bulblets. A few crooks will 
appear from old bulbs. It will beat most early blooming varieties in earliness; this 
feature and its bright coloring make it a great commercial prospect.
