SHALLIMAR (362) Marek 1952 (75) 
Beautiful shade of rose, shading deeper in the throat, with 
a silver edge on each petal. Very near Chamouny in color 
but a much better grower with long flowerheads and more 
open florets. It will open up to 12 with most of the 
remaining buds in color. Shallimar won the awards of 
“Longest flowerhead” and “Most Open” (12) at the 1953 
Champaign County show

A very tall, straight white that opens up to 10 florets on a 
26 inch flowerhead. Snowclad was the winner of the

eastern Michigan show. It is a good strong grower and 
makes plenty of rather small bulblets that germinate readily.
