FLYING CLOUD FARMS 
NEW BEDFORD, MASS. 
ARABELLA (Pfitzer, Germany) —A glossy dark red, almost black, that makes a nice 
spike. Probably best described as a much improved Moorish King, especially since 
it does not have the tendency of Moorish King to produce short flower heads. 
L $2.00, M $1.25, S 80c, Bits. 2-30c. 
ARMAGNA II (Mair, Scotland)— A rich deep scarlet, with white lines on the lower 
petals. Many blooms open and well placed. An exhibition variety that deserves a 
place in all glad fanciers gardens; a much improved King George. L 20c, M 2-25c, 
S 4-25c, Bits. 12-15c. 
ARTEMIS (Barth, Germany) —A very beautiful variety, light pink with a cream-colored 
throat, strongly reminiscent of Jenny Lind, but a big improvement over that variety. 
Splendid spike, with 10 blooms opening at once. Attracts every visitor to my garden, 
and was sold out early last season. L 30c, M 20c, S 2-25c, Bits. 6-20c. 
AUREATE (Whiteley, New Zealand) —This 1934 introduction is a good colored yellow, 
with a slight crimson stripe in the throat and is heavily ruffled, as are most of Miss 
Whiteley’s varieties. L 50c, M 30c, S 20c, Bits. 4-20c. 
AUTUMN GLORY (Errey, Australia, 1934) —The name suggests the color one would 
expect in this gladiolus and it is made up of many autumn shades, which are most 
difficult to describe in any other way. The flowers are of good size and 10 or more 
open, in perfect placement, on a good spike. L $1.20, Bits. 2-30c. 
AVE MARIA (Pfitzer, Germany) —One of the older blues and still holds its place as one 
of the best. L 10-45c, M 10-25c, S 10-15c, Bits. pkg. 10c. 
AVIGNON (Errey, Australia 1933) —A sport of the famous Mrs. S. A. Errey and is 
identical in spike construction, but the color is a very unusual silvery-pink, with a 
large plum blotch, which makes a pleasing color combination. It does not burn in 
the sun, as does Mrs. Errey, and being a good propagator, we believe it will become 
popular. Would fall in the A. O. C. class in the shows. L 50c, M 30c, S 20c, Bits. 
5-25c. 
AYRSHIRE (Mair, Scotland) —A strong, rose-lilac, with decided white blotch. Typical 
Mair spike, with over 20 buds, perfectly placed. 10 or more opening at once and 
this one should replace many novelties, such as: Duchess of York, Roi Albert and 
Hinemoa. L 2-20c, M 4-20c, S 6-20c, Bits. 40-20c. 
BAD HOMBURG (Barth, Germany 1933) —The outstanding centifolia-pink color of 
this new variety is very fine. Some have said it is the nicest in color, of any similar 
shades. It is a strong, healthy grower. Makes tall spikes with the blooms well ar¬ 
ranged. Early mid-season. The best of Barth’s new ones. L $2.00, Bits. 25c each. 
BAGDAD (Palmer, Canada)—A dark smoky-rose, that opens 4 or 5 very large florets 
at once on a tall, graceful spike and well placed. It is a strong grower and blooms 
frequently from bulblets. Its large blooms and tall spike have made it very popular. 
L 10-50c, M 10-30c, S 10-15c, Bits. 10015c. 
BARON VON WYNBERGEN (Alkemade, Holland) —Large, salmon-rose glad, with a 
large carmine blotch. A strong grower. Flowers are very large and of good texture. 
L 2-30c, M 4-30c, S 6-30c, Bits. 25-20c. 
BARBARA PHILLIPS (Phillips, Australia) —A mixture of fawn-gray slate and sepia, 
beautifully blended and as it makes a large spike, a great improvement over the old 
Prince of India. L 30c, M 20c, S 10c, Bits. 10-25c.

Another customer, from Norwich, Conn., writes us on Dec. 28, 1935:—“Just a line to let you know that 
the bulblets that I purchased from you last year germinated so good I thought I would give you another order.”
