SELLWOOD GLORY 8B-FD-Dk BI (Beyerle- 
Rocky River) Here is one that is dis- 
tinctive. Seven to eight inch blooms of 
mahogany overlaid purple, suffusing to 
distinct white edging of each petal. It is 
not a bi-color. Coloration of the flower 
is very uniform; not a single solid col- 
ored flower in more than a hundred hills 
grown here. A formal decorative, with 
good keeping qualities, no open cen- 
ters, and good cutting stems. Very 
popular with our florists as it lends 
itself well to unusual effects in florist 
work. Even the foliage is attractive. 
Size 7x3. 
Root $3.00, Plant $1.50 
SHERWOOD'S PEACH A-ID-Au_ (Sher- 
wood-Ruschmohr) This was the largest 
of the 1944 introductions in our plant- 
ings. Blooms have great depth and are 
carried facing side on cane-like stems. 
Plant growth is robust. Not an early 
bloomer but it is at its best for shows. 
Color is ocherous buff. Size 12xé6.

INDELIBLE MARKING OF ROOTS 
Roots may be marked with an indelible pencil when labels are not practicable, or 
desirable. Wet and clean a portion of one of the more mature roots on the clump. 
Then wipe off any excess moisture with a dry cloth, and write the name of the variety 
on the root, applying no more pressure on the pencil than necessary for a clear marking. 
Marking two roots on each clump is a wise precaution.
