750 import release.) EM. Clean white 
blending into light cream in the throat. 
Now that we have grown many 
thousands of this variety, we are very 
sure-footed about its description. 
Spikes from large bulbs average 
58-55 inches tall making 24-28 inch 
flowerheads (which are long consider- 
“ig its double row placement). The 
florets are round and flat, 5%-6 
inches, excellently attached, 8 open, 
8-7-6-21 buds, their placement so uni- 
formly good it should be described as 
phenomenal. It is a most vigorous 
grower and a very fast propagator. 
We know of no commercial faults, its 
substance, lasting quality, access to 
cutting, ete. beyond reproach. 
Few growers have enough dependable 
whites. This is the variety to add 
and the time is now. An outstand- 
ing value. 
Has an A rating from the Dominion 
Experiment Station Test Garden at 
Ottawa, Ont.
