Palmer’s Pink Picardy at Practically Painless Prices 
What a Glad I Originated by Mr. E. F. 
Palmer in Canada. 
First shown in U. 8. A. five years ago. 
Talk about a sensation! I first saw it at the 
National Olad Show in Des Moines, Iowa. 
Since then Pioaxdy has been on the tongue 
of every Glad fan. Many bought even at the 
high prices. Others have been saving up their 
pennies to Invest in Picardy as soon as price 
is within reach. 
That price has arrived, ’way ahead of sched¬ 
ule, for reasons I shall explain. Picardy in¬ 
creases amazingly fast. This accounts for 
prices coming down so rapidly. That’s the 
explanation in a coupla nutshells. 
“On your right you will see” a snapshot of 
Picardy, taken right out in the garden by one 
of my Minnesota customers. That's “Only the 
beginning—only the beginning.” You can’t 
imagine the lovely coloring and the giant size 
of the blossoms. 
Color, soft shrimp pink, without flecking. 
Blotch of light flesh pink. Though gigantic 
in size, Picardy is anything but coarse. You 
just fall in love with it at sight. 
Spike of Picardy grown from a “Long” bulb 
No. 2 size by W. W. Kurtz, Grand Rapids, 
Minn. The charming miss is Jane, daughter 
of Mr. and Mrs. Kurtz. Another snapshot of 
the same spike taken next day showed 10 big 
blooms, none wilted. Yes, “What a Glad!”

Scrambled Picardy Bulbs 
One lot of my Picardy shows a sprinkling 
of Red Phipps, with also an occasional Bag¬ 
dad. How in Sam Hill these rogues jumped 
the fence, into Picardy pasture, is more than I 
know. 
I’m pricing these to you as below but with¬ 
out cleaning and sorting out the few bulbs 
damaged in digging and handling. Most of the 
roots will be knocked off when we run them, 
dry, through the graders. But you will have 
some work cleaning and sorting. Extra bulbs 
will be sent to cover any waste in sorting. 
Order early if want some, “as is.”

“As Is,” Specially Priced 
Note: Most these bulbs, especially Nos. 3, 4 
and 5, will bloom first year, so can be rogued 
and cleaned up nearly 100% the first season. 
Mr. T. Girvan writes from Bridgeport, Conn., 
Aug. 29, 1934: “Wow, what a Glad My Pic¬ 
ardy from No. 2 bulb bought of ‘JD' had 10 
giant blooms out and 12 more to come. Glad 
fans here were amazed.” 
More Pretty Palmer Glads 
My word, you might as well order some of 
these first as last. I tell you, they are large, 
lovely and lush. Strong growing, healthy 
plants. And such unusual, breathtaking colors! 
Wasaga, Duna, Bagdad— what a trio! And 
Acadia, Coronation, Debonair, Champlain—all 
outstanding, for one cause or another.
