BRIGHT LIGHTS (Schreiner 1946): M.L. 36 in. A finely marked 
plicata of bright waxy yellow with an alabaster-white blaze on 
the falls together with soft tan stitching. From a distance it

of a bi-toned yellow with deep golden standards and white bor- 
dered yellow falls. On close-up it is a fine moulded plicata 
gaily marked. Each $1.50; 3 for $3.75 
BRONZINO (Salbach 1937): M. 40 in. Tall, rich in color and 
ideal in form and habit of growth. The standards are frosty

ous grower and a free bloomer. Each 75c; 3 for $2.00

en light brown with lustrous sheen but still not velvety. It grows
