FOUR NEW KINYON VARIETIES 
THE BEAUTIFUL 1935 GLADIOLUS 
ROSE STANDISH 
Description: One of the loveliest shades of clear light rose-pink blending lighter in 
throat with tiny violet markings on lower petals. Five or six wide open beautifully 
ruffled blooms of good size well placed on straight slender spike of 18 or more buds. 
The buds of this variety are very beautiful with their delicately ruffled edges and 
from the first bud to the last it is outstanding and different. 
Parentage: A light pink ruffled seedling X Dr. Moody. 
History: Bloomed first in 1929 and was exhibited as a seedling at Michigan Glad¬ 
iolus Society show Battle Creek 1932 where it was a winner. (Did not bloom at right 
time to be exhibited in 1933). Summer of 1934 we registered it as Rose Standish 
and in the Rose-pink class at M. G. S. show Detroit Aug. 17-18, it was again a winner. 
A few days later it was again shown in the non-competitive display of the Michigan 
Bulb Growers, Horticulture Building, Century of Progress, Chicago. 
Different growers spoke to us about buying the stock and it was purchased by 
the following men, V 2 to each one. 
Elmer E. Gove George T. Wentworth 
Clamplain View Gardens 1100 W. Territorial Road 
Burlington, Vermont Battle Creek, Mich. 
Write to either of them for prices. 
Best of all there is enough stock so it is being offered at a popular price.
