TIP TOP (Pfitzer) Color a clear red scarlet which grows very tall and opens seven to 
nine blooms of the Pfitzer Triumph type and seems one of the best of his 1931 intro¬ 
ductions. L $3.00, M $2.00, S $1.00, Bits. 30c each. 
TOSCA (Barth) A very deep velvety red with a black red throat and the petals are also 
flecked this same black red; it opens seven to eight very large blooms on a good spike; 
a showy variety and equal to any red, Koehl and Sowden included. L $1.00, Bits. 
2-20c. 
VIOLET (Mair) New lilac violet with a white blotch; this color may or may not please, 
but the spikes are great for exhibition as fourteen to sixteen open blooms are often 
seen. L 25c, M 2-30c, S 3-25c, Bits. 10-20c. 
WANETA (Martin) A grand exhibition variety not widely known as it should be; very 
similar in type and color to Phipps but has a smoky edge to the petals and is an 
earlier and stronger grower; when well grown can successfully compete with any 
Mother Machree and Marmora; will open twelve blooms. L 30c, M 20c, S 2-20c, Bits. 
10-25c. 
WARATAH (Errey) This glad was the most outstanding of the new ones the past 
season as the spikes were very uniform and of fine exhibition quality; tall with per¬ 
fect placement tapering to a nice top; one of the very best for exhibition. The color 
is really a red, as Errey says, it is “a brilliant orange scarlet, the center is crimson 
touched with cream”. Ten or more open flowers that I can strongly recommend. 
A strong grower and does well from bulblets. L $1.00, M 60c, S 35c, Bits. 2-20c.

to the usual Pfitzer standard. L 40c, M 30c, S 20c, Bits. 10-20c. 
WUERTEMBERGIA (Pfitzer) Very large red with a white throat, spikes tall and a 
strong grower, really a wonderful glad in this color. One of the best recent ones 
from Pfitzer. L 30c, M 20c, S 2-20c, Bits. 15-20c. 
ZEPHIA (Gilrey) A fine exhibition variety, about ten good sized lavender pink blooms 
open on a twenty bud spike. A vigorous exhibition variety. L 25c, M 2-30c, S 3-25c,

New England Gladiolus Society 
This gladiolus society is for the advancement of the gladiolus and all its 
various side lines; each season a large year book is published which contains 
information on many subjects from growers all over the world. This year 
book is sent to each member and certainly to anyone the least bit interested 
in the gladiolus game, the book is worth much more than the yearly dues. 
The N. E. G. S. holds five meetings a year and a show each season at 
Horticultural Hall in Boston; the show has often been called the “quality 
show of America.” 
I am anxious to secure all the new members possible for the society; 
membership will cost $1.00 until December 31, 1934, and every member will 
receive in addition to the 1934 year hook which will be out in February, a 
copy of the 1933 year book and the Fischer Color Chart. If you will send me 
$1.00 for a new member, I will send it along to the secretary, Mr. Clark W. 
Brown, Ashland, Mass.
