MALLOW (Palmer ’51) (462) 80 
Tall light rose shading to a cream throat. A fine 
cut flower type opening 6-8 large wide open blooms. 
Has been very good for us tho a rather slow 
propagator. 
MANON (K&M) (441) 85 
One of the most striking of the blotched varieties. 
A medium deep pink offset by a large dark red 
throat. 6-7 5” blooms open at once on 4’ spikes. 
MARGERY (Melk ’53) (462) 75 
One of the best of last years introductions, being a 
nice medium shade of rose sometimes having attrac- 
tive deeper flecking. Opens as many as 8 round 
well placed florets on a 414’ spike. Has the ear- 
marks of a good commercial. 
MENILIK (Salmon ’50) (554) 90 
An outstanding black-red from Holland. A very tall 
vigorous grower that can make topnotch exhibition 
spikes. 
MID AMERICA  (Knierim °47) (550) 85 
The leading red exhibition variety with huge spikes 
holding up to 9 plain petaled 612” blooms open at 
once. 
MISS HOLLAND (Ks) (560) 80 
Clear venitian pink somewhat on the shade of the 
older Coryphee. Up to 8 round plain petaled blooms 
open at once on tall heavy spikes. Opens well from 
bud, a fast propagator, and has good color value. 
MOTHER FISCHER (Fischer 51) (400) 85 
Beautiful ruffled white that is fine for either cutting 
or exhibition. Opens 7-8 large well placed blooms 
on tall stretchy spikes. A most reliable grower that 
appears the best of the ruffled whites for general use. 
MT. BAKER (Cave ’50) (540) 100 
Tall late blooming blush white opening up to 8 
blooms on tall willowy spikes. This was outstand- 
ing for us this year with a clear delicate blush 
color. 
NECIA (Both *49) (445) 85 
Unusual deep pink with a cyclamen rose blotch. 6-8 
5” blooms open at once on slender 41/4’ spikes. Tho 
some do not like the color combination we think it 
gives a rather interesting effect. 
NEGUS (KxM 51) (354) 85 
A medium sized smooth black red capable of open- 
ing 10 blooms at once on long flowerheads of 20-22 
buds. Should walk away with the blue ribbons in 
its class. A vigorous grower and every spike is a 
topnotcher.

The bulbs ordered from you came a few days ago and they are beauties! I think it is time that I thanked
