BIRCHVILLE GARDENS — Plainville, Connecticut 
NEW YORKER (Graff 50) 440—85 
Certainly one of the best ‘50 introduc- 
tions, a beautiful light pink. It attains 
a height of 55 to 60 inches with a total 
of 20 buds. Opens 8 florets of good 
texture that are well placed. Good 
increaser. Doc’s best origination. 
NOWETA ROSE (Fischer 50) 568—85 
More of a lavender than rose. Grows 
up to 60” tall having 10 open blooms 
on a 22 bud spike. This is a heavy 
winner at the shows. Placing is rather 
crowded and rather short heads. In 
my opinion highly overrated. 
ORCHID MARVEL (Jack 47) 566—85 
Deep orchid-lavender. Spikes carry 20 
buds, 7 to 8 open. This looks like one 
of the best ‘47 introductions. Will be- 
come very popular as a show glad. 
Grows tall with up to 23 buds. 
OSTRICH FEATHER (Pfitzer 50) 540—85 
Huge heavily ruffled and needle point- 
ed pink with a deeper throat. Grows 
60” tall with 8 open. This is a real fine 
novelty that will be very popular. Also 
called Straussenfeder by some. 
PAINTED LADY (Roberts 52) 443—90 
Here is a beauty, a deep pink with 
white lips “painted” scarlet on the 
edges. Opens 6 nicely ruffled florets 
on a medium tall spike. You will have 
to see this to realize its beauty. 
PALETTE (Kooy 51) 437—85 
Vermillion-red with sharp contrasting 
clear purple-blue color in throat. This 
is very attractive and should become 
very popular as it is a good grower. 
One of the best new novelties. 
PARADE (Klein 51) 468—68 
Cyclamen purple, with magenta 
throat. Grows 50 inches tall with a 20 
bud spike. Opens 8 with good attach- 
ments. Its main use will be as a cut 
flower for it is very early.
