This variety has been highly adver' 
tised but has never given us satisfac¬ 
tory results in this section; slow propa¬ 
gator. 
CORPYHEE (Pfitzer) (Ex. Dec. 75- 
80) Very tall, large flowered shell- 
pink. I think one of the most beauti¬ 
ful shades of pink found in Glads. 
Some years, when moisture, weather 
and soil are just right, we have pro¬ 
duced most wonderful tall, straight 
spikes that would rank any place as 
super Glads, but at other times, stems 
crook badly in most parts of the east. 
See the photograph we print else¬ 
where in Catalog. The season of 
1933 was very dry and Coryphee pro¬ 
duced very many crooked spikes. We 
can not give it the high rating it 
should merit because of this fault. 
CRINKLES (Kunderd) (Com. Dec. 
85-90) Very popular plant; medium 
height; color lovely rose; very much 
crinkled and ruffled. 
DAMASCUS (Stevens) (Com. Ex.) 
Deep rose-purple, overcast blue, red 
blotch; a very popular smoky. 
DR. F. E. BENNETT (Diener) (Ex. 
Com. 90-95) Fiery orange-scarlet, 
white lines in throat; 7-8 large florets 
open; a very popular red. 
DR. MOODY (Kinyon) (Ex. Com. 
85-90) Early, light lavender; good 
spike; many open; strong grower; fast 
propagator. 
DR. NELSON SHOOK (Kunderd) 
(Ex. Com. 80) Tyrian rose, ruffled; 
strong grower; tall, heavy spike; 6-8 
open; extra good. 
EARLY SUNRISE (Velthuys) (Ex. 
Com. 65) Very early; tall, strong 
spike; good placement; a very fine 
commercial, only fault is the difficulty 
to germinate the large, hard shelled 
bulblets. I believe, if it did not have 
this fault, it would be one of the most 
popular varieties. 
E. I. FARRINGTON (Rowe) (Com. 
Ex.) Good grower; color a soft yel¬ 
low self, a very good yellow. 
EMILE AUBURN (Lemoine) (Ex. 
Dec. 85-90) Coppery bronze; large 
red blotch; 8-12 bloom open; tall 
spike; large flowers; good placement, 
and good propagator. 
FANNY CROSBY (Carpenter) (Ex. 
Com.) Large, creamy white, yellow 
throat; good spike; large flowers; a 
worthwhile variety. 
FIELD MARSHALL (Mair) (Ex. 
Dec.) Large, tall plant; large flowers, 
many open; color brownish red in the 
smoky class. 
FRANK McCOY (Briggs) (Ex. 
Com.) Tall, large pink; good grower; 
many open. 
GERTRUDE PFITZER (Pfitzer) 
(Dec. (70-75) Light blue with violet 
center; tall, strong grower; large flow¬ 
ers; a nice variety. 
GIANT NYMPH (J. Coleman) (Ex. 
Com. 80-85) Tall, large, light sal¬ 
mon-rose pink; one of our best com¬ 
mercial pinks; very strong grower. 
We have seen this variety produce 
fine bloom when others were a failure. 
GLADDIE BOY (Bill) Prim Grand 
(Com. Ex.) Early, tall pink; very 
fine. 
GOLDEN DREAM (Groff) (Ex. 
Com. 90-95) Tall, strong grower; 
good propagator; long stems; fine 
placement; 7-10 open; a very clear, 
deep yellow. Do not cut buds tight. 
To be at its best, cut when 1 or 2 
bloom have opened. 
H-1177 SEEDLING (Hornberger) 
(Dec. 80-85) Ruffled bright salmon 
pink with extra large throat blotch of 
Golden yellow. We have had so 
many requests for stock that we have 
decided to list this variety this season. 
One grower described it as most beau¬ 
tiful Glad he had ever seen. 
HAMBURG PINK (Hornberger) 
(Com. Ex. 65-70) Large, bright pink; 
6-8 open; good grower and propaga¬ 
tor.
