No. 50-06 — 48-61 X 48-43 
No. 48-61 is Snow Flurry X Chivalry 
No. 48-43 is 44-44-Blue Seedling X Chivalry 
A self of the deepest shade of violet (R. H. 
S. Color Chart). | have liked this flower 
better each year for the four seasons it has 
bloomed. It has a very fine plant, with dis- 
ease resistant blue green leaves. The very 
straight 38-inch bloom stem, which usually 
has three huge flowers open at one time, 
has never required staking. There are three 
buds in each bud socket which produce from 
12 to 15 flowers on each main bloom stem. 
This gives a very long season of bloom. It 
begins with the early bloomers, and at the 
end of the season is still blooming—the last 
flowers as large and beautiful as the first.
