THE FOSS HEATON GLAD GARDENS, CRESTON, IOWA 
RED PHIPPS 
(Briggs). Mid-season. Ridgway: Spectrum Red. (49th). 
Another Glad that will go high in the symposiums. A red that is red. Free 
flowering like its parent, Mr. W. H. Phipps, maybe not so large, and it has the great 
keeping qualities of Phipps. Will make a fine florist’s Glad. 
SULTAN 
(Crow). Mid-season. Ridgway: Spectrum Red. (44th). 
A rich velvety, heavily ruffled red, with a purplish overcast, especially on the 
edges of the petals. Fine strong spike, and giant blooms. One of the best of the 
newer Glads. 
DARK RED 
ARABIA 
(Hinkle). Early mid-season. Ridgway: Bordeaux, shaded black. 
The black Glad. Better than Marocco in one respect in that the spikes are al¬ 
ways straight. Probably also blacker. Easily grown, and does not burn in the hot 
sun. A heavy spike. Purplish black red. 
MAROCCO 
(Pfitzer). Early mid-season. Ridgway: Deep Burnt Lake, flaked black (43rd 
in 1931). 
This glistening black red has twice as many open as Arabia, and they are of the 
more wide-open form, but the spikes are inclined to crook slightly. Tall slender 
spikes. 
MOORISH KING < 
(Pfitzer). Late. Ridgway: Very deep Ox-blood Red. (36th). 
Very much larger and finer than Arabia or Marocco, but not quite so black. The 
petals are somewhat narrow and pointed, and the flower very large and wide-open. 
Color is scarlet-black rather than purple-black. It will probably soon disappear from 
the earth, as it is a slow propagator. 
PURPLE GLORY 
(Kunderd). Mid-season. Ridgway: Amaranth Purple. (31st). 
A sensational Glad for years. Its thick leathery petals, glossy texture, and fine 
ruffling are unsurpassed. A purplish dark red. Large bulblets that are very hard 
to sprout. 
ROSE RED 
CRINKLES 
(Kunderd). Mid-season. Ridgway: Tyrian Rose. 
A unique flower that should be more widely grown. Not large, but the many 
extremely ruffled blooms suggest beautiful carnations along the sturdy spike. A 
fine spike that is easily cut, with many vivid buds. Exceedingly deep vivid rose color. 
DREAM OF BEAUTY 
(Zimmer). Mid-season. Ridgway: Tyrian Rose, deeper in throat. 
Looks like this one will head the rose class in time. A very strong growing vivid 
deep rose Glad. 
DR. NELSON SHOOK 
(Kunderd). Late. Ridgway: Deep Rose Red. (48th). 
A very strong heavy spike, with heavy foliage. A vivid deep rose red, many op¬ 
en. Very popular. 
PRIDE OF WANAKAH 
(Criswell). Mid-season. Ridgway: Tyrian Rose, blotch Pomegranate Purple. 
(45th in 1932). 
Extremely tall spike, slender and graceful, never crooking. A bright, gleaming, 
silky rose red, of large size. A fine commercial.
