White Plume 
Yew. on 1935 
ET 
I have grown the following fine varieties this past summer and found 
them all to be outstanding. However my choice was White Plume 
because of its strong growing qualities, six feet tall with extremely 
large florets. A little on the plain side, but it will prove to be a 
top-notch commercial. Conrad was rated higher by some visitors, 
and grows still taller. Blue Radiance, while very pale in color is 
really handsome and very early. You won’t make a mistake in select- 
ing any of these. 
ROSE LUSTRE (Clarke-Tyndall (83 days) (532) Large bright 
deep salmon with a slightly deeper throat. Height 66 inches, 30-inch 
flower heads, 25 buds, opening 10 with 8 more showing color. Bottom 
floret 6 inches. Florets are lightly ruffled and needlepoint, with good 
placement and attachment on a straight stem. Excellent propagator. 
WHITE PLUME (Clarke-Tyndall) (80 days) (500) Very large 
pure white with a faint lavender line on mid-ribs of lower petals. 
Height 72 inches, 30-inch flower head, up to 25 buds, bottom floret 
6!4 inches. Florets are plain, opening 10 with as many more showing 
color. Florets are well attached on straight stems. Excellent 
propagator. 
BLUE RADIANCE (Clarke-Tyndall) (75 days) (477) Light blue 
with a deep purple line on a deeper blue blotch. Height 56 inches, 
25-inch flower head, 22 buds, bottom floret 5 inches. Florets are 
lightly ruffled, opening 8 with 6 more showing color, on stems that 
are always straight. Excellent placement and attachment. Very 
healthy. Good propagator. 
CONRAD (Tyndall) (90 days) (413) Very tall deep yellow with 
a large scarlet feather on lower petal. Deeper in color than Spotlight, 
larger, with lightly ruffled and fluted florets. It has grown to 7 feet 
in height in some localities, but with us, 6 feet is common. Bottom 
floret 5 inches, opens 6 to 7 in the field with 5 more showing color 
on a 20-bud spike. Flower head 30 inches. Florets have very heavy 
texture, are well attached, and have long-lasting quality. Good 
propagator. We have yet to see a crooked spike. Winner of 
N.A.G.C. award.
