 well reflexed. The color is a brilliant scarlet crimson 

 with three broad white blotches on the lower petals; 

 often 4 feet high with 12 to 15 flowers on a spike; 

 exceptionally healthy and flowering is continuous. 

 A great prize winner. 



Rural New Yorker says of it: — " The great size, beauty and 

 distinctiveness of its blooms, and its unexampled vigor of constitu- 

 tion, enabling it to succeed under diverse conditions, have made it 

 a favorite subject for exhibition in all localities and appear to 

 have secured for it everywhere the highest honors." 



Luther Burbank says of " Princeps :" " The most magnificent 

 of any Gladiolus I have ever seen." 



Ph. de Vilmorin says: "Princeps surpasses anything with 

 which we are at present acquainted."
