1953 Release LAVENDER BLUE Class 576 
Early Midseason ( Henderson) Sport of Eliz. the Queen 
This pale lavender blue sport should become a heavy winner in the light blue (576) class, which at 
the present time is very weak. The florets are similar in size and form to isaberh the Queen, but of a 
very pale color and with a cream throat. Commercial use will probably be limited by the pale color, but 
we believe that if Lavender Blue can be exhibited as a blue it will be an outstanding show glad. 
The spikes grew 45” to 58” tall for us this past year with a 21” to 25” head, 18-19 buds and 7 to 9 
ruffled 514” florets open in excellent placement. As a sport of Elizabeth the Queen its growing Hanae 
health and propagation are all excellent. 
For those interested in showing we recommend this new one as a great improvement in a weak class.
