DEMURE (Platell 1955) 85 days 466 
Webster defines Demure—coy, modest, shy, tranquil, harmonious, 
blushing, alluring—any one would describe En in fact a little 
of each could well be used. 
A true lavender—with neither rose nor purple in the color—a 
medium large white throat, very clean, blended together in an extra 
nice way. The top petal is somewhat hooded, once again giving de- 
mureness to the floret. Add some beautiful ruffling, five to six open 
on tall straight spikes, six buds in color and a total of twenty to 
twenty three buds from large bulbs. Florets will average about five 
inches in size. Attachment, placement, propagation and health are 
good. Has produced some wonderful seedlings, mostly in lavender 
and white colors, with much of its ruffling following through to the 
offspring.
