From J. C. Nicholls Gardens catalog, 1928: WHITE AND GOLD (Nicholls 1928) 37 inches 25.00 NET—NO DISCOUNTS APPLY. Our first introduction. Pure gleaming satiny white not marred by any venation whatever. Standards broad and domed. Falls flare widely and of good breadth. The brilliant gold beard makes it a very chaste flower. Form, finish, and texture unsurpassed. Low and widely branched, with 12 to 14 blooms per stalk. Perfectly hardy, increases rapidly, and blooms very freely. The spreading bloom is of large size for a hardy white, the largest we know in that class. It is also taller than any of the other hardy whites we know.
From Quality Gardens catalog 1931: WHITE AND GOLD (Nicholls 1928) M. 37". Aptly and truly named. A true white and a true gold. Pure gleaming satiny white, not marred by any venation whatever. Standards broad and domed. Flaring falls of good breadth. Form, finish and texture unsurpassed. The brilliant gold beard adds wonderfully to the flower. Low and widely branched with 12 to 14 blooms per flower. $3.00.
