From Marx Gardens catalog, 1955: PINK FROST (Marx 1954) Each $6.00 An enchanting new pink unlike any other of the hundreds of pink seedlings that bloom here each year. The color is just a shade lighter than World's Delight and is intensely ruffled. The waved somewhat pointed falls create a novel effect in profile. Double 8 inch flowers later than World's Delight.
