RED RADIANCE 
(Red Charm x Spotlight) 
RED RADIANCE is a clear bright red without blotch or markings. A 
very clean and glowing color. Florets are 5” across, well spaced and attached. 
Up to 8 well placed blooms open with 6 additional buds showing color on a 
spike of 20 or more buds. Florets are of smooth leathery texture and do not 
bruise nor crush easily. 
Spikes are straight and strong 56” tall with a 25” flowerhead. Good pro- 
pagator and bulblet germination is excellent. Blooms in approximately 85 days. 
Red Radiance is a real commercial as it is one of those easy to cut varieties 
making tall spikes on plants of medium height. Stems are very hard and firm, 
and the color is the brightest red we have seen. Has healthy foliage and makes 
sound high crowned bulbs.

Unit A 1 bulb and 12 selected bulblets $7.50. 
Unit B_ 6 large, 6 medium and 125 selected blbts. $50.00.

PINK BOUQUET (Woodcock) I rate Pink Bouquet as one of the finest com- 
mercial prospects of recent years. It is a tall, vigorous, healthy grower 
with exceptionally long flowerheads. Field height easily up to 60 inches 
inches and it will produce spikes with up to 32 buds, opening 10 to 12 
florets. Ordinary field culture will average 22 buds or more. Color is a 
light pink, of Pink Radiance color value, but with a clean, creamy throat. 
Florets open nicely, lie flat against the stem and look you squarely in the 
face. Placement is usually informal, nice for compact bunching, but oc- 
casional spikes come with very formal placement. The buds are a very 
pretty peach color. My tests for opening prove that 10 florets will open 
with only the bottom 4 showing color. Florets open rather slowly, both in 
the field and when cut in bud, a prime commercial requisite. Bulblet pro- 
duction is medium; germination is average. This may not prove a startling 
exhibition variety although it has won top awards for the originator at 
some of our toughest Wisconsin shows, inclnuding Seedling and Grand 
Champion at the 1948 Manitowoc Show; single and three spike excellent 
rating at Sheboygan in 1949, together with rosette and single spike divi- 
sion champion at same show. 
Priced: Any size bulb, $3.50; 1 bulb and 10 bulblets for $7.00. 
Bulblets: Qt. $350.00 Pt. $200.00
