From Sass catalog, 1953: CINNAMON TOAST (50-498) (1953)-Large flowers of Cream Ground Sanded Red Brown, forming a solid border. A fine plicata, 30-inch. $20.00
From Fleur De Lis catalog, 1956: CINNAMON TOAST (Sass 1953) M. L. 36 in. (((Imp. R. Pollock x P. Sunset) x F. Zenor) x (Aleppo Plain x Imp. R. Pollock)) x ((A. Plain x Imp. R. Pollock) x (A. Plain x Imp. R. Pollock))). Here is just about perfection of form and coloring in a yellow red plicata. The flower is large with very broad petals of heavy substance and satiny finish. The ground color is deep creamy ivory and it has a broad border of rich red brown so heavily sanded that it is very nearly a solid edging. The plants are robust and produce strong well branched stalks. H. M. 1953. 12.00
