DISTINCTION 
Laidley (Errey). Fine spikes of perfectly placed, 
nicely ruffled bloom. Flowers are deep pink 
on the edges, blending down to a cream throat 
with a small rose blotch. Looks like a piece of 
Dresden china. 
Libelle (Pfitzer). About the color of Mrs. van 
Konynenburg, but the flowers are larger, open 
up better and are well placed on a strong tall 
spike. 
Lochnagar (Mair). A mahogany color with a 
white blotch. Large flowers well placed on a 
very tall spike. Fine exhibition variety. 
Maid of Orleans (Pfitzer). We consider this our 
best white. Well formed flowers of milky white 
loveliness and creamy throat. Tall spikes, 
good substance and placement. 
Mildred Louise (Wentworth). Light salmon pink 
with cream throat. In a class with Picardy. 
Mr. Wm. Cuthberson (Mair). A very pleasing 
flower of rosy pink with light center, ruffled 
and well placed on the spike. Dandy cut flower 
and good exhibition spike. 
Pajarito (Kingsley). Pajarito is Spanish for little 
bird. The lacinated flowers make one think of 
brilliant scarlet birds poised for flight. Un¬ 
usually attractive and artistic flower. Won 1st 
prize at East Bay Gladiolus Show, Oakland, 
California, 1932 , for best basket of lacinated 
glads; also 1st British Gladiolus Society Show, 
1933 . 
Pelegrina (Pfitzer). Deep violet blue, black 
throat. The bluest of the glads we have grown. 
Pirate (Palmer). Shades and tints of carmine 
and pomegranate purple, shading deeper on lip 
petals. Large wide open flowers well placed 
on a strong, tall spike. Bright and showy and 
probably the best of the purple-reds. Out¬ 
standing. 
Professor von Slogteren (Alkemade). Large 
flesh pink flowers of great beauty. Tall and 
vigorous. 
Red Admiral (Roozen). Another fine red, remi¬ 
niscent of Pfitzer’s Triumph. Very promising. 
Red Lory (Errey). Large flowers of carmine 
rose with deeper red blotches. Good form and 
placement. Very tall plant. 
Roi Albert (Lemome). Coppery salmon flower, 
mulberry blotch edged with cream. One of 
the finest smokies. 
Salbach’s Orchid (Salbach). A pinker Minuet 
with eight to ten flowers open. A fine vigor¬ 
ous plant. 
Tennyson (Kingsley). Here we have a rich ox- 
blood red with a cream blotch. Belongs to 
the “any other color” class, yet cannot be said 
to be smoky. Tall spike, always straight, 
flowers large, always well placed; we have 
never seen a crooked spike or a misplaced 
flower on Tennyson or Amador. Seven to 
nine flowers open at the same time and 22 to 
28 buds to the spike. Tennyson is a flower of 
great charm, and always a blue-ribbon winner. 
Valencia (Christ). Golden orange, overcast blue. 
Tall and stately. 
Wasaga (Palmer). Clear apricot, buff throat; 
charmingly ruffled. 
Wuertembergia (Pfitzer). Very tall spikes of 
large scarlet flowers with white throat blotch. 
Yvonne (Veltlmys). A lovely blush white with 
small rose blotch. Sparkling texture. Many 
large florets on tall spike. 
Yellow Perfection (Pfitzer). Splendid large deep 
yellow, good substance and fine placement.
