FORMALITY A-ID-LtBl (Olsen-Rocky River) 
Will probably be classed informal, altho 
it gets its name from the very formal 
appearance of the flower and plant. A 
peculiar shade of pink, suffused autumn, 
which we have tentatively called a 
smoky pink. Flowers have thick petals, 
rolling back to give the bloom good 
depth. Plants are very strong, with 
dark, glossy foliage which has a bronzy 
sheen. Size 9!/ox5. 
Root $5.00, Pot Root $3.50, Plant $2.00 
FORMOSA A-FD-Pk (Salem) This was one 
of our personal favorites of the past 
season. The blooms are fairly large, 
and the color is a very clean, attractive 
amaranth pink shading to Tyrian pink. 
It is a bright flower on strong stems, 
and the bushes are rugged. Size 9x4.
