CARILLON (J. Wills 1945) M. L. A warm blend with the luscious coloring of ripe apricots. The cupped standards are broad and thick textured. The falls are arched and flaring with very heavy substance. This is one of the varieties on which the flowers open slowly and do not reach their full perfection until the second day, a very good feature for such flowers have great lasting qualities. Not tall, but very floriferous with vigorous growth, the sparkling flowers of pink and honey yellow form a charming clump for border planting. H. C., A. I. S. 1943. R.89, 1944. 33 in. $10.00.
