Gentlemen: VIOLET WOODRIFF 
We are so enthused over our new pink and yellow hybrid lilies that we want to cut 
down on the production of begonias and various lilies. ‘shen ene can produce 4 to 
8 inch pink lily blossoms out in the field on stems 12 to 30 inches high from the 
middle of May to the middle of June it seems only logical to go iu as strong as 
possible on these new types. They will have a forcing period of around 45 days 
under glass and over a month earlier blooming in the field than Regals. 
We are also working with gome very lovely yellow trumpet lilies in the Aurelims 
group and from our ow havemeyer crosses. ‘Je have thousands of seedlings from them 
and we believe these should be grown on many acres. We are unable to give proper 
care to our new hybrids and grow the quantities of Croft, Butterfly, Pardalinum 
Giganteum, Speciogum Rubrum and begonias we have on hand so we are selling out of 
alot of our stock. We will still be able to supply your orders for garden lilies 
and Croft for forcing though. 
The following lilies will be available this falls 
SPECIOSUM RUBRUM 
Again this year we will have both our Hybrid Seedlings and the American grown strains 
of Red Champion, Elkton, Peterson's strain, etc. Tne seedlings are a result of using 
about 20 other varieties of poilen on Rubrwum and Magnificum, ‘Some are definitely 
showing hybrid characteristics but they are mainly virus free vigorous geedling 
Rubrum types with high bud sount and some with a shorter forcing period. They vary 
in shade from very dark to very light Rubrum types. They are being priced as follows: 
and they will be EARLY DUG FUR FALL GARDEN STOR# SALES ag well as EARLY FORCING.
