PILLAR OF FIRE 
A striking, three-petal, large-to-very-large, red-bordered 
flower with wide overlapping petals and one which brings 
exclamations of delight from most visitors to the garden. The 
coloring of the large, round, much ruffled, widely flaring falls 
blends from pure white around the signal patches to solid 
blackish purple at edges with broadened, white, radiating 
veins extending almost to edge of petals. The ruffled standards 
and styles carry out the same color patterns as falls. Plant 
is a rapid grower having extra heavy, straight, well branched 
stems 46 in. high and is a floriferous and early bloomer. A 
highly distinctive variety and one which is outstanding in 
every respect. Pictured above. 
$35.00 each. 
SEAFURY 
A flower as difficult to describe as it is unusual. It is a large, 
six-petal, stiffly horizontal to an inverted salver shaped flower 
with slightly waved petals of white basic color with an overall 
tinting of light violet when the flower first opens. As the flower 
ages, this tinting fades gradually from edges to center of petals, 
leaving the petals of a completely developed flower pure white 
with sharply etched spectrum-violet veins of medium width 
which emerge from a slight violet halo surrounding the yellow 
signal patches. The center of flower is formed by a cluster of 
very irregularly formed and serrated styles of spectrum-violet 
color which are boldly splashed white at the tips. The flower 
is beautiful in all stages and the effect of light and darker 
shaded flowers on the same plant is an interesting feature. 
Visitors to the garden declare its name well describes the 
flower. The stems are heavy and widely branched, 41 in. tall. 
Starts blooming in early midseason and lasts long. One of the 
loveliest as well as the most unusual of my offerings that de- 
lights every year with a profusion of charming flowers. 
$30.00 each.
