1954 REITER INTRODUCTIONS 
(Introduced jointly by Schmidt Nursery} 
Sunset and Candlelight 
AFTERGLOW. This is a bushy type plant of medium vigor 
with arching branches and with quantities of double flowers 
in the light flame colorings. The medium sized flowers open 
from cream colored buds that unfold into frilly, double, 
powder-puff flowers of unfading pale flame (HCC 23/2*). 
The tube and recurved sepals are creamy, the sepals coloring 
pale rose with maturity, but the puffy airy petals holding 
their same pale flame coloring throughout their life. 
One of the most delicately attractive fuchsias we have 
ever offered; an extension of the pastel tones into the pale 
salmons. The combination of flame and cream give a warmth 
to the flower which connoisseurs will appreciate. 
Pour Madame’”’ 
BOUDOIR. A bushy plant with large flowers of the daintiest 
coloring; the double flowers of neat puffy shape have creamy 
starry sepals and double petals of pale Bishop's Violet (HCC 
34/3-34/2*) which fade gracefully with age to pale Orchid 
Purple (HCC 31/2-31/3*). 
In the intimate rose and blue coloring of the Gray Lady 
type this fuchsia, Boudoir, is bluer and more starry.

THE INDIAN. A strong willowy-branched semi-trailer with 
long double flowers of large size. The great white buds open 
into white tubed and sepalled flowers of dark crimson (HCC 
22/\1*) which remain bright to the very last. The clean cut 
bicolor flowers with their beautifully recurved white sepals 
surrounding the central mass of crimson petals is perhaps 
the most brilliant effect yet obtained in a fuchsia flower. A 
good grower and an arresting plant. 
Solid 
POTENTATE. An all purpose arching grower suitable as a 
climber or for hanging pots, with huge flowers of the Rubeo 
type. The long stemmed buds are Rose Madder (HCC 
23/1*) tapering to pale Rose Madder at their tips. The 
open flowers have long tubes, long recurved sepals of Rose 
Madder and the double petalage is a blend of deep Rose 
Madder and Crimson. The general effect of the flower is 
one of warmth and fullness. Recommended as a climber, 
pillar or standard. With adequate pinching it should make a 
showy hanger. Good, easy, arresting. 
Overflow 
TUMBLING WATERS. A double flowered "purple" trailing 
variety. The double flowers are medium to large with well 
reflexed sepals of dark crimson (HCC 22/0*) on the outside 
and light crimson inside. The double petalage is well placed 
in a frilly puff with an overall coloring of Cyclamen Purple 
(HCC 30/1*), 
A true cascade type trailer in the big purples with 
good growth and handsome flowers. An addition to the 
hanging varieties that was long needed.
