THE BOOK OF 
Giant New Glacis 
If we should show you Mildred Louise and Picardy 
Gladioli full size, it would take a full page of this Garden 
Beauty Book for just one single flower—one whole page 
of this big catalog. Here are truly two of the grandest 
Glads ever originated. Just imagine single flowers (florets) 
5 inches to 5^2 inches and even more across, and whole 
clusters of them nearly 2 feet long—COUNTING OPEN 
FLOWERS ONLY! That’s what these two gorgeous Glads 
give you, and with all their mammoth size they give you 
a quality of beauty not to be found in others. Their 
colors are the clearest, most delicate and most beautiful 
you ever saw. Petals most delicately textured—most 
beautifully shaped.

Mildred Louise l cover ) 
Indeed a grand and glorious Glad! Color is so beautiful 
it is difficult, yes, impossible to describe—and equally im' 
possible to picture accurately. We have pictured it as 
closely as possible on the front cover but the colors are 
even more beautiful than shown there. Petals are a rich 
salmon-pink, fading into golden yellow at throat and are 
beautifully dashed and streaked with sunset red. Stamens 
slightly streaked with purple. Blossoms very beautifully 
formed and beautifully distributed on tall, grand spikes. 
Nature has indeed demonstrated her superiority as a color 
painter in Mildred Louise Glad. Note at right above 
some of the prizes Mildred Louise has won.

Prize Winners! 
Both Mildred Louise and Picardy have made phenomenal 
records as prize winners at nationally known flower shows. 
Mildred Louise was the Gold Medal prize winner at At' 
lantic City Flower Show last year, winning first premium 
in all classes. It was also first prize winner in its class at 
the New York show, and in several classes at the Michigan 
and Indiana shows. Space prevents us from listing all the 
prizes won by this amazing variety. Picardy has made an 
equally long record of prizes won. You will be delighted 
with both of these beautiful “Glads.” 
Picardy 
(See Front Cover) 
Just as beautiful, j’ust as grand, just as glorious as 
Mildred Louise but slightly different in color—more of a 
clear pink than a salmon, beautifully painted with red in 
the throat. Blossoms every bit as large as Mildred 
Louise—? to 5Yz inches across, sometimes even larger. 
Picardy, too, has been a wonderful prize winner. See 
the paragraph above.

used to describe the color of 
this Glad. It is RED—deepest, 
richest, most beautiful red you 
ever saw—and GRAND! Flow' 
ers measure more than 5 inches 
across and are closely borne and 
beautifully distributed on long, 
tall spikes—beautifully formed. 
Prices, 2 for 25c; 10 for #1.00. 
MISS THREE RIVERS. The 
grand thing about this Glad is 
the amazing height of its spikes, 
often 5 feet high. The beautiful 
thing is the wonderful tint of 
apple-green in the throat, one 
of the rarest colors to be found 
in flowers. Note the large ruffled 
creamy orchid flowers and beau' 
tiful placement on the spikes. 
Everyone should have Miss 
Three Rivers in their garden. 
Prices, 40c each; 3 for #1.00. 
AVE MARIA. Blue! Yes, here 
is a beautiful blue Glad. There 
are some streaks of violet and 
some purple it is true, but the 
basic color is true blue. Beau' 
tiful large blossoms nearly 5 
inches across, closely and beau' 
tifully arranged so as to produce 
a spike in places half a foot 
wide. Prices, 2 for 12c; 10 
for 50c. 
CACTUS ROSE. Just imagine a 
beautiful flower in a shade of 
velvety red even more beautiful 
and soft than the color shown. 
Now take a little frost from an 
October morning and scatter it 
in the throat and you have an 
idea of the beauty of this won' 
derful Glad. Even taller than 
Miss Three Rivers, 5 to 6 feet. 
Absolutely one of the very best, 
finest, and tallest. Prices, 40c 
each; 3 for #1.00. 
RED PHIPPS. An amazingly 
beautiful flower. Blossoms are 
nearly as large as Mildred 
Louise and Picardy. Coloring, is 
a rich, glorious red—clear and 
true. The blossoms come close 
together, giving a wonderful 
massed display of color. Prices, 
2 for 25c; 10 for #1.00. 
BERTY SNOW. The picture will 
give you some idea of the amaz' 
ing beauty of these flowers. Col' 
ors are delicate and pure and 
petals are so beautifully tex' 
tured that you want to nestle 
them against your cheek. Prices, 
2 for 15c; 10 for 50c. 
MISS GREELEY. A rare, exotic 
flower of salmon-pink and pur¬ 
ple that looks like rare Bo¬ 
hemian glass. The under shade 
is salmon-pink and over this the 
purple seems to flow in little 
rivulets producing identically 
the same effect that the Bohe¬ 
mians have so skillfully pro¬ 
duced in their glass work, plus 
the beautiful velvety texture in 
the petals. Prices, 2 for 25c; 
10 for #1.00.

MOROCCO. A dusky, fascinating beauty! Black—real black— 
is a striking part of this color scheme. The under color is 
richest wine-red but it is liberally streaked with shades of 
midnight, and the flowers are velvety in texture, making it 
the richest, most striking Glad you ever saw. It hardly seems 
real, it is so beautiful. Wonderful shape, artistic grouping, 
large blossoms, tall spikes. Grand! Prices, 2 for 15c; 10 
for 50c. 
MARGARET FULTON. The beauty of this Glad lies in the 
compact arrangement of the flowers on the spike and the 
glorious coloring. And how they are colored! The tint is 
best described as like a half-ripe cherry—half way between 
rich salmon and cerise, and as clear, except for a slight yel¬ 
lowness in the throat. Prices, 2 for 45c; 10 for #2.00. 
MARMORA. Seems like a beautiful messenger from another 
world, its color scheme is so rare and unusual. An unusual 
shade of violet-mauve you have never seen before, dotted and 
splashed with other colors in strange, beautiful fashion. By 
all means include Marmora in your order. You must have it 
or your garden is not complete. Prices, 2 for 15c; 10 for 50c.
