VANISLE 590 
(White) M This 
name is an ab- 
breviation for 
Vancouver _Is- 
land its birth- 
place. The origi- 
nator was proud 
of the island and 
of its glad and 
rightly so. Tho 
shown only in a 
limited way this 
past year it has 
created a_ sen- 
sation. The color 
I call mulberry 
rose or brown 
with a few dark- 
er lines on a 
small white lip. 
The huge florets 
often reaching 
7” or over are ruffled, needlepointed, wide open 
and flaring. It is not only totally different from 
anything else but is extremely beautiful and 
intriguing. At the Boston Show on the Court of 
Honor where the public votes for their preferences 
a poor tail-end spike won second to a wonderful 
spike of Leading Lady. At Binghamton it won 
first and second in its class. The spike is some- 
times rather short and attachment is not perfect 
but its sheer beauty and exotic appearance will 
put it over and will make it extremely popular. 
Those who grew it this past season have reported 
very favorably on it. It is a good grower and 
propagator. Next season I surely hope to get a 
good color picture of it. It will be around for a 
long time so better get a start now. 
L 2.00, M 1.50, S 1.00, B .25,10/2.00. 
VANITY FAIR 517 (Harris) M_ Blush pink
