THE INDIAN (Reiter 1954).—A strong semi- 
trailer with long double flowers of large 
size. The great white buds open into white 
tubes and sepalled flowers of dark crimson 
remaining bright to the very last. The 
clean cut bicolor flowers with their beauti- 
fully recurved white sepals surrounding the 
central mass of crimson petals is perhaps 
the most brilliant effect yet obtained in a 
fuchsia flower. 
TUMBLING WATERS (Reiter 1954).—A dou- 
ble flowered purple trailing variety. The 
double flowers are large, well reflexed 
sepals of dark crimson on outside and light 
crimson inside. The double petalage is well 
placed. Type trailer in the big purples with 
good growth and handsome flowers. An 
addition to the hanging varieties that was 
long needed. 
VOODOO (Patent pending).—Double corolla, 
darkest of any large double fuchsia, a very 
deep purplé violet. Tube and wide up- 
turned sepals darkest red. Strong upright 
grower, very large flowers. The deep richly 
contrasting coloring of Voodoo places it at 
the top. 
WEE ONE (Tiret 1954).—Double corolla and 
inside of sepals a lovely soft pink. Tube 
and outside of sepals slightly paler. Broad 
sepals turn up pagoda fashion and lend a 
perky appearance to the small-to-medium 
sized flowers. Strong willowy upright 
grower, exceptionally good foliage, with 
continuous bloom. Heat resistant. One of 
Horace Tiret’s finest introductions.
