Blue Warrior 
BLUE WARRIOR. A superior variety much 
better than most of the older well known 
“violets.” Has large flowers of a _ beautiful 
medium blue shade and the sleek handsome 
dark green foliage is ‘‘red’’ on the reverse 
side. Each, $1.49. 
CALIFORNIA DARK PLUM. A new variety 
in the so-called ‘‘red’’ shades. Best described 
as a deep plum red, it is considered very de- 
sirable and one of the best of its color. Flow- 
ers are large, well formed and produced free- 
ly on a compact, shapely plant. An acquisi- 
tion to anyone’s collection. Each, $1.79. 
CARDINAL GIANT. The finest near-red 
color which we have been able to find. There 
is definitely no real red (or yellow) African 
Violet. The color is best described as a wine 
or burgundy red or if you prefer, a red- 
violet. Perhaps some day we will have a 
really red or scarlet colored variety but 
that is doubtless well in the future so at 
present Cardinal Giant is the nearest to that 
color. Extra large flowers and robust habit 
of growth make this variety outstanding. 
Each, $1.59. 
DOUBLE ROSE. A really beautifully double 
flower much like a small rose. The flowers 
are of extra large size, mostly white with a 
flush of rosy lavender in center, at base of 
petals. Nice compact habit of growth and 
altogether an unusually good variety. De- 
cidedly different and very much worthwhile. 
Each, $1.98. 
FAIRY TALES. A quick growing and very 
free-blooming variety. When in full bloom, 
the plant looks almost like a bunch of 
violets. Each flower is of large size, violet- 
blue with vellow eve. Quite different from 
any other African Violet. Each, 78c.

FRINGETTE. Here is the newest type of 
African Violet with fascinating fringed flow- 
ers. Instead of smooth edged petals, they 
have fringed and laciniated edges which give 
the blooms an entirely different and showy 
appearance. The plant is all that could be de- 
sired with large, healthy foliage. The colors, 
as yet, are somewhat limited, but we offer 
you a choice of three shades. BLUE, MAUVE, 
RED. Any color: Each, $1.49; 3 for $4.00. 
GENEVA RAINBOW. An offspring of the 
beautiful Lady Geneva with the same _ nice 
large flowers and fine plant. The color, how- 
ever, is a burgundy-red, instead of blue, but 
with the same narrow white edge to each 
petal. If you liked Lady Geneva, you will 
surely like this variety also. This picotee- 
edged type is still uncommon and one or two 
specimens, at least, should be in every col- 
lection. Each, $1.79. 
HOLLY. A distinctly outstanding variety 
for its foliage alone. The leaves are very 
dark, almost a bronzy green with reverse 
side reddish. They are very much like holly 
in shape with crinkled edges. Blue flowers. 
To our knowledge there is no other similar 
variety and this plant will provide a definite 
addition to your collection. Each, $1.49. 
WHITE MADONNA. Here is a greatly im- 
proved variety with beautifully formed 
double flowers of purest white. The large 
blooms are held well above the dark green 
girl type foliage. The very finest double 
white violet. Each, $1.79.

The Pink Beauty African Violets are lovely and have blossomed beautifully.— 
Mr. I. A. Quehl, 1221 East Center St., Rochester, Minn. 
LADY GENEVA. An exciting new addition 
to this ever popular house plant. Lady Gene- 
va is not only new but decidedly different. 
Its pure white twinkling edge on a solid 
blue flower gives it an entirely new quality. 
The flowers are large, beautiful in color and 
the whole plant is compact and well formed 
with bright green foliage. Certainly this 
variety is-a “must” for all African Violet 
lovers. Each, $1.29. 
MENTOR BOY SUPREME. Here is a violet 
with distinct character. The flowers are very 
large and of a rich, velvety deep violet 
blue, with bright yellow eye. There is a 
glowing quality to this color, very difficult 
to describe but decidedly noticeable when 
once seen. A dependable free-blooming plant 
almost in a class by itself. Each, $1.29. 
Orchid Wonder 
ORCHID WONDER. Considered a_ giant 
among giant flowering varieties with flowers, 
often claimed to be as large as a silver 
dollar. They will surely be much larger than 
a 50c piece and the color is a lovely laven- 
der-orchid, somewhat deeper in eolor around 
the stamens and on the two upper petals. 
Easy to grow and a profuse bloomer. A real 
beauty and a decided acquisition to anyone’s 
collection. Each, $1.79. 
PINK WONDER. There are still not too 
many good pink violets. Pink Wonder, how- 
ever, appears to be about the best to date 
and has just about every good feature. The 
flowers are extra large, of a lovely clear pink 
color and the plants are strong and healthy. 
Don’t miss this variety if pink is one of your 
favorite colors. Each, $2.29. 
PURITY. The first pure white double flow- 
ering variety available. Large fully double 
flowers on good stems and the plant is a 
profuse bloomer. A_ beautiful ‘‘violet’’ sup- 
plying a long wanted type. Each, $2.39. 
SNOW PRINCE. Absolutely pure white 
flowers that are full, round and of huge size 
compared to ordinary varieties. The well 
branched stems always carry many flowers 
and buds. If white varieties have heretofore 
proved troublesome, try Snow Prince for full 
satisfaction. Each, $1.69. 
STAR SAPPHIRE. The somewhat pointed 
petals of the star-shaped flower makes this 
variety well named. The flower, of deep sap- 
phire blue is further enhanced by a double 
set of pistils which create a bright gold 
crest in center. A bit of ruffling at each petal 
tip adds grace to an amazingly large flower 
on compact plant. Each, $1.79.
