WHITE 
ACHILLES —A large clear white with deeply ser- 
rated petals. The flower is larger, and the 
variety is more productive than Jupiter. A fast, 
early producer on long, strong stems. Makes a 
free comeback in winter and is a good all-year 
white, Fine in summer. 
JUNO —A_ medium-sized, flat and well-formed 
white flower with a very full center. Makes a 
free comeback in winter. Crops rapidly from a 
uniform pinch and comes back vigorously. This 
variety is equally good in fall, winter and 
spring and is a good keeper and shipper. 
PINK 
CUPID —A true Briarcliff pink with a small flower, 
Cupid is a high producer, best from December 
through April. The color is also excellent in 
summer, but the flower is small. A good keeper, 
this is a “bread and butter” variety. 
EROS —A light pink, similar to Aphrodite but much 
deeper in summer and early fall. Vigorous 
heavy growth, long stems, early flowering and 
a fast comeback characterize this variety. It has 
large flowers and good average production. It 
has a tendency to split in the early fall. 
PANDORA —A dark pink with sufficient salmon 
tones to make it beautiful in artificial light. The 
color fades in the heat but is outstanding from 
December through early May. Good average 
production. Fine substance. 
CRIMSON 
TITAN —The flower is full and an intense crimson 
of good substance. Not quite as tall as Vulcan, 
it gets into production fast and is a consistently 
high producer. 
SCARLET 
SIREN —A bright scarlet that combines heavy pro- 
duction with a fast comeback and uniform 
cropping on stems of medium length. Height is 
about the same as Aphrodite, with production 
equal to Apollo. Good growth habit and fine 
flower quality assures Siren an important place 
among the reds. 
VARIEGATED 
CASSANDRA-—A lively yellow variegated with 
pink penciling, similar in coloration to Orion, 
although the flower is larger and the stems 
stronger. An outstanding keeper, the flowers 
never split and have excellent substance.
