Ogrodnichek’s best variety is Margaret 
Fulton. In color it is an unusually rich 
salmon, being a solid tone throughout 
the flower save for a softening toward 
apricot in the throat. Please note the 
very distinctive and beautiful roundness 
of form of this variety: there is no other 
gladiolus like it. Margaret Fulton is an 
unusually vigorous glad and propagates 
heavily. It rarely crooks and because 
of its earliness is unusually valuable as 
a cut flower. 
We reproduce on this page a lavish 
four-foot bouquet of Margaret Fulton, 
showdng how beautiful this variety is 
for floral work. 
“Margaret Fulton, a tall, fine variety, with¬ 
stands heat exceptionally well. A very excellent 
variety.” 
Geo. C. Morris, 
In report on Wisconsin trial grounds. 
“I must tell you that I had Margaret Fulton 
at the show which bloomed for me in exactly 
65 days.” 
Harold Janes, Wisconsin. 
“Margaret Fulton, Mildred Louise and Dream 
O’ Beauty are all top-notchers: very beautiful 
and massive glads.” 
B. U. Crist, Maryland. 
“One of the most pleasant surprises of the 
season was Margaret Fulton, which I consider 
extra good. Lotus, also is extra good. Dream 
O' Beauty from bulblets was fine and I can 
stand more of it.” 
Arthur P. Olson, Minnesota.

OGRODNICHEK, 1932 
T HE originator of this glad claims to have 
originated all of his seedlings from five or 
six original varieties (such as Golden Measure, 
Mrs. Pendleton, Purple Glory, Prince of Wales, 
etc.) which he purchased about a dozen years 
ago. Outside of these five or six sorts he has 
never had another variety in his garden except 
his own seedlings. It is remarkable to see what 
a diversity of color he has developed from these 
few original sorts. Practically every color known 
in glads will be found in his garden. 
Though he has produced many fine glads, Mr.

catalog are the work of the Bue Studio of Lanesboro, 
Minnesota. 
The picture on page one was taken by the official photog¬ 
rapher at the Horticultural Building, the Century of 
Progress. The spike of Heritage held by Miss Bates is not 
one of the prize-winning spikes but an extra spike which 
we had taken along to Chicago. The judges were about to 
start work on the three spikes entered in the seedling divi¬ 
sion so that none of these could be used for the photograph. 
(Pictures of Heritage on page two are more representative 
of this variety.) 
The following is a description of one of the winning spikes 
at the Century of Progress as written up in the Gladiolus 
Review of October, 1934, by Mr. Huff: “The color [of Heri¬ 
tage] is a softer W. II. Phipps with the shape and form of 
Giant Nymph. The writer measured the largest floret open 
on Saturday and without any distortion this floret measured 
across with a 29" flowerhead on which were 22 buds 
and florets with 14 florets well open.”)
