LITTLE DOLLY (Hall, '61) M. 20" $2.00 An intensely colored, medium size, brilliant true pink. Slender of stem, reaching a height of about 20 inches, it is loaded with flowers and lasts and lasts.

Stepping Out $2.50 LIME FIZZ (Schreiner, '69) E. 35" $7.50 That light greenish yellow that always has everyone drooling and here presented at its very best.

LORNA LEE (Gibson, '66) EM. 40" $3.00 A true pink, well branched and with so many flowers per stem that it blooms for almost three weeks. Blossoms are very large, the falls wide and horizontally held, with tangerine beard. Grand champion and winner of the Premio Firenze Medal in Italy in 1965. Shown on page 33. HM, '67. LORNA LYNN (Plough, '61) ML. 35" $1.00 This is a luscious blend of salmon, pink and apricot. The large flowers are flaring and there is a yellow flush below the bright Saturn-red beard. Very long blooming season. HM '63. Debby Rairdon $5.00 Rippling Waters $3.00
