salmon with a throat marking of deep red on white. Produces massive 
spikes. Possesses an enviable show record.

BONFIRE (Fischer-’50) 85 days-436

BRIDAL ORCHID (carison-’50) 85 days-566 
Bridal Orchid is tops in commercial qualities as it has vigorous fine 
clean foliage, and produces firm healthy bulbs and many bulblets which 
germinate easily. But it also has the necessary size, length, beauty of 
color and florets to make it an excellent flower for home use and winner 
on the show tables. Color is lovely lavender, lighter deep in the throat. 
Will open 6 on a 21-bud spike with perfect placement.

CLEAR YELLOW snyder-’52) 80 days-410 
Clean yellow and good size for this color. Growing habits similar to 
Spotlight and may I say one of the best yellows for cut flowers as well 
as show.

CRYSTAL ORCHID (Browne-'52) 92 days-506 
I would place this marvelous variety in the (506) cream class in- 
stead of the white (500) as formerly. Creamy white with lavender 
feather, very heavily ruffled and needle-pointed petals. Has won sey- 
eral top awards, including grand champions. Spikes straight as spires 
and a beautiful sight in our plantings. This is the type we like to grow.
