PENNANT (Palmer ’52) (440) 92 
Exquisite soft pink self color that never flecks. 
Holds 8-12 blooms open at once in formal placement 
on 4’ tall spikes. Very strong healthy growth and 
one we like for cutting as well as any of the pinks. 
PERSIAN BEAUTY (Kneirim '48) (586) 90 
Huge smoky old rose with lighter colored red vein- 
ing. Holds 8 614” blooms open at once on a 51/ 
spike. A good exhibition variety with an unusual 
color effect. 
PERSIAN RUG (Roberts 50) (486) 90 
Much admired blend of plum and rose with a large 
cream throat. A variable grower that opens 5-8 
blooms at once on 41/’ spikes. Always attracts 
attention whenever shown and always commands a 
second look. 
PFITZERS SENSATION 
(K&M ’53) (578) 90 
Lustrous dark violet blue — a shade deeper than 
Abu Hassen and much larger. Of rather loose form- 
ation, it makes tall spikes holding 7-9 6” blooms 
open at once. A healthy grower and good propaga- 
tor. With us it is the best in its color class and 
should become widely grown. 
PINK CHIFFON (fischer 53) 
A delicate orchid pink shading to a lighter center. 
Somewhat on the shade of the older Rima. A color 
much in demand commercially tho the spike and 
floret texture may be a little light for general com- 
mercial use. Makes beautiful small baskets and 
arrangements. 
PINK PRIDE (Arenius 52) (530) 90 
A giant medium salmon pink with a red throat 
feather. Opens 8-10 formally placed 6” blooms on a 
husky 5’ spike. Flowerheads sometimes reach 32” 
with 24-26 buds. Out of 8 entries of PINK PRIDE 
we made in shows this summer 7 of them won blue 
ribbons and 2 of those went on to win section 
championships. A fine commercial having good 
attachment and opening qualities and the heavy 
spikes that appeal to shippers. 
POINSETTIA (Johnson ’52) (450) 87 
Clear lightly ruffled spectrum red self color. Opens 
6-8 round 51/4” blooms on slender 414’ spikes. It is 
beginning to win blue ribbons and also receiving 
attention for its fine cut flower qualities. 
PRESTO (Roberts 52) (401) 75 
Attractive snow white offset by a very prominent 
scarlet blotch. Opens about 7 blooms on average 
height stems. A very showy and distinctive color 
effect.

The bulbs you sent us last year were wonderful. So many admired them and the beautiful colors that I had.
