show glad. Floret not as large as Outrider our 1952 red 
introduction, but a different shade and type floret. Its 
persistant good performance during our five years of 
growing has convinced us it is well worth introducing and 
hope our customers will give it a trial and be able to agree 
with us. Not quite as husky a grower as Outrider. Per each, 
Small $1.00; Blts, .30. 
1952 INTRODUCTIONS 
ROSE NYMPH 
PreEccy Lou X LAVENDER RUFFLES 
(About 75 days)...Ridgeway says rhodonite pink, we 
call it rose pink. Very even color with very small throat 
marking, almost a self color that we have never seen in a 
glad. A very attractive live color. Has never failed to grow 
over 65 inches overall even in the dry summer of 1952. 
Always one of the very first to bloom for us making a nice 
ribbon of bloom of about 18 inches with no gaps or crowd- 
ing. Informal type, 5 1/2 inch floret. 18 buds, 6-7 open, 
28 inch head, straight slender strong stem. An _ ideal 
florist’s flower that should become one of the leaders in this 
field in a few years. Propagates with the best. If you 
grow cut flowers and did not pick up a stock of Rose 
Nymph on introduction last year, we would like to advise 
you do so now. Per each, Large $2.50; Medium $2.00; 
small $1.50: Blts--25Fors Ontor 2,00: 
OUTRIDER 
KING CLICK X TUNISIA 
(About 95 days)...Big husky medium red of very even 
color, blotch slightly darker shade. Well open, fluted and 
heavily ruffled, heavy substance, very strong attachment, 
excellent placement, fine formal type, quite persistant 
in making one lip florets. Excellent producer of blts, of 
easy and strong germination and growth. Made excep- 
tionally fine spikes the past dry summer. We have intro- 
duced some very good reds in the past but will say that 
we consider Outrider our finest red origination to date. 
Should make good both as commercial and exhibition. 
6-1/2 inch floret, 10 open, 23 buds, 60 inches overall, long 
stretchy head, heavy healthy foliage. According to Ridge- 
way this is very close to red orange but will show as light 
red. We do not feel that anyone will go wrong in growing 
this one. Per each, Large $2.00; Medium $1.30; Small
