ABOUT MARIE WOOD 
Mrs. Douglas A. Pattison of California writes, 
“Marie Wood is in bloom and has been on the job 
for all of six weeks and still going and will be in a 
lesser degree for the next week. | do enjoy that 
variety. | won't touch it for anyone and have been 
offered all sorts of advantageous trade for it. | said 
No and meant it. That is just one pleasure | am going 
to allow myself.’ 
MARIE WOOD (Wood) EM 30” H.M. 1954 25.00 
A true pink with round, full flowers evenly toned 
and of firm, smooth texture. The petals are wide, 
and both sepals and petals are recurved. The petals 
are slightly ruffled and the pink coloring goes deep 
down into the throat. Because of its delicate trans- 
parency, this color is difficult to catch on a color chart, 
but it seems to be nearer Azalea Pink (RHS), It has 
the same coloring, and looks as dewy and fresh at the 
end of a hot day as it does when the dew is actually 
upon it. It is a fine and vigorous grower when fed 
and left alone, but it does not like to be divided every 
year.
