sky and its representatives are well qualified to assist you in the year round program and in selecting the best 
varieties for your particular market or need.

CHECK YOUR ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 
It is most important to read our acknowledgment of your order. This indicates delivery date our grower esti-

and it is necessary that you know this when the order is confirmed. 
METHOD BY WHICH VARIETIES ARE LISTED IN THIS CATALOG 
Both Pompon Types and Standards in our list are grouped by color and number of weeks normally required 
to flower when grown under controlled blooming programs. 8-week varieties require 8 weeks to come into 
bloom after shading is started for summer and early fall blooming, or 8 weeks after lights are discontinued 
and shading is started for late winter and spring blooming. 9-week varieties require 9 weeks, 10-week vari- 
eties require 10 weeks, etc. These grouping are based on conditions at the 40th parallel, and there would be 
oe ed in localities very much farther north or south of this latitude. Normal blooming dates are also 
indicated.
