FLYING CLOUD FARMS 
NEW BEDFORD, MASS. 
SUNNYSIDE (Phillips, Australia) —A champion of champions in Australia showing 
twelve large, well formed flowers on a tall spike. The outer part of the flower is a 
beautiful cerise pink, slightly flaked a darker shade, the centre being pure white, 
which predominates as the flower expands. This variety is perfect in both color and 
spike. F.C.C. Ballarat as an exhibition variety. While this variety was rather 
disappointing the first few times it flowered for us, it has grown better every year 
and has now proven itself deserving of all the good things the Australians said of it. 
L 75c, S 25c, Bits. 2-20c. 
SUSSEX (Errey, Australia) —Large salmon pink flowers with a chrome yellow center, 
makes a nice color combination. About ten will open, well placed on a spike. It is 
a very beautiful variety, but unfortunately a bit slow as a propagator. L 40c, M 20c, 
S 2-25c, Bits. 4-15c. 
SWEETHEART (Holland) —This variety should be valuable as a decorative, especially 
because it is one of the very earliest that bloom and it is a good shade of pink for 
commercial use. L 35c, M 25c, Bits. 10-25c. 
TAINUI (Julyan, New Zealand) —A tall, strong growing variety, that will open about 
ten well placed blooms, at once. The ground color is yellow overlaid with orange 
scarlet and has a conspicuous blotch of red. This variety was very fine the past 
season and was a winner at Boston. L $1.50, M 90c, S 45c, Bits. 10c each. 
TAIAROA (Miller, New Zealand) —This is a large salmon pink with a purple blotch in 
the throat a bit flecked with slate. It will open about eight good blooms on a nice 
spike. It is a good increaser and it seems to be Miller’s best introduction to date. 
S 20c, Bits. 5-20c. 
TAKINA (Burns, New Zealand) —This variety has the largest florets of any variety we 
have ever seen. It will open about seven florets, up to 8 inches in size, in fact has 
been shown in New Zealand with nine open. The placement is good, it is a strong 
grower and propagates easily. The color a bit hard to describe, is Ridgway’s rosaline 
purple—almost a pure violet-red, lightly flecked a darker shade. It is truly a wonder¬ 
ful variety. Received an Award of Merit in the Mammoth Class at the Ballarat Test 
Garden and is considered, with Miss New Zealand, to have put New Zealand on the 
gladiolus map. L $3.50, M $2.00, S $1.50, Bits. 4-$1.00. 
TAMAKI (Whiteley, New Zealand) —A smoky purple, which someone described as a 
“black and blue” color with plum red feathers. About six open on an 18-bud spike, 
an interesting novelty. L 30c, M 20c, S 2-20c, Bits. 6-15c. 
TANGERINE (Morrison, Australia) —An exquisite variety, producing tall graceful spikes 
of large glowing orange flowers. A decided improvement on La Paloma. This 
variety is outstanding as a decorative and should be a valuable commercial because 
of its strong growth. It bloomed freely from bulblets in ordinary field culture from 
August 1 on, and now the price will permit the commercial grower to give it a trial. 
The foliage is an especially dark green in color. L 20c, M 2-20c, S 3-20c, Bits. 20-15c. 
THORNBY (Errey, Australia) —An unusual rosy mauve, being blush rose at the edges of 
the flowers, of distinct color and good habit of growth. L 25c, M 2-25c, S 3-25c, 
Bits. 10-20c.

This customer seems pleased:—“I recently received my order of bulbs from you. Thanks for extras and 
good count. Have been buying a few bulbs every year since 1918 as a sort of city lot hobby and have never 
before received such clean healthy looking bulbs.” 
A customer from Washington says:—“I received the shipment of gladiolus bulbs and everything was in 
nice shape and I want to thank you for the extras which I was glad to receive.”
