ROCKY RIVER INTRODUCTIONS

small miniature formal will never have 
any trouble staying under the miniature 
size limit. A clear lavender that will 
not find too much competition on the 
show tables. Plants are average in 
height for miniatures, branch upright, 
and the bushes. are literally covered 
with flowers from very early in the sea- 
son until frost. Stems are well pro- 
portioned and stiff. Size 3xlI'/. 
PRAIRIE THISTLE was not grown by 
Honor Roll writers, or at the Trial 
Grounds, but it enjoys a rare distinc- 
tion, for a miniature: that of winning 
an AMERICAN HOME Achievement 
Medal, an honor usually awarded to 
the ''big fellows’. The Achievement 
Medal was won at the Central States 
show in Chicago.

PRETTY LADY (Pape-Rocky River) A well 
formed, "heavy" flower of clear laven- 
der, with darker suffusions at outer tips 
of petals. Numerous, closely set petals, 
roll well back to the stem, forming a 
ball-shaped flower. Centers are high, 
and full, giving an impression of possi- 
ble green centers as the flower opens. 
A medium size lavender informal will 
meet little on the show table. Plants 
are tall, and strong growers. Size 8x5. 
PRETTY LADY is listed on Mr. Webb's 
Review in THE DAHLIA.
