cinated, and the flower has an interesting formation. 1947 introduction. Size 5x3.

EMMA CAROLINE A-FD-W_ (Premier) A heavy, waxy petalled white. Stems on

ENGLE'S WHITE CHIEF A-FD-W (Engle) This 1944 introduction was one of the best 
performers of the past season in our fields. Large blooms up to twelve inches 
with heavy, waxy, pure white petals. While some stems are a trifle short, most are 
of suitable length for exhibition purposes. Plants are strong growers with heavy, 
glossy foliage. Size 10x4!/2. Root $1.50, Pot Root $1.00, Plant .75 
ESQUIRE A-!D-Pr (Martin-Rocky River) 
Borderline between formal and informal, 
this large, true purple, will hold its own 
in either class. As a matter of fact, we 
believe it will be the successor to Mrs. 
Hester A. Pape, since the latter has 
been classified red. Slightly below me- 
dium height, the plants are rugged, 
with heavy, glossy foliage. Size 10!/ox5. 
Root $10.00, Pot Root $6.75, Plant $3.50 
ESSIE SMITH A-SC-L (Smith) One of the 
largest of recent introduction. Winner 
of several “largest bloom' awards this 
past season. Color varies from lavender- 
pink to lavender. Flowers have great 
depth giving them a massive appear- 
ance. A good grower. Size I1xé. 
Pot Root $1.00, Plant .75 
ESQUIRE 
*ETOILE DE NAGLES B-StC-R A fine European variety with plenty of substance and 
of excellent formation. Petals are tightly rolled and the flower is well formed. 
Color is crimson-red. Size 8x3!/>. 
Root $1.50, Pot Root $1.00, Plant .75 
EVENTIDE B-ID-Pr (Bissell) One of the finest of the 1940 introductions. The flowers are 
a deep violet-purple, fairly large, and of distinctive beauty. Each petal is notched, 
adding very much to the appearance of "‘fullness'’ created by the rolling of the 
back petals to the stem. A free, early bloomer that will win its share of prizes. 
Plants are broad, spreading, and rugged. Foliage is dark and leathery. Size 9x4!/. 
Root $1.50, Pot Root $1.00, Plant .75

proportioned stems. Size 9x4!/>.

FARNCOT B-IC-Bi An old-timer, which is still one of the best in the bi-color cactus 
classes. The color is a deep purple, with the outer one-third of the petals 
tipped pure white. Like most bi-colors it will produce some solid colored flowers. 
Size 6x3. Root $1.50, Pot Root $1.00, Plant .75
