CORYPHEE (Pfitzer) (Prop. B) Med. S. (Color A 1) 7 5-80 (Exhib. B) 4x. Large 
flowered shell-pink. I think one of the most beautiful shades of pink found in 
Glads. Some years, when moisture, weather and soil are just right, we have 
produced most wonderful straight spikes that would rank any place as super 
Glads, but at other times, stems crook badly in most parts of the east. 
DAMASCUS (Stevens) (Prop. A) Med. S. (Com.) 80-85 (Exhib. B) 4x. Deep rose 
purple, overcast blue, red blotch; a very popular smoky. 
DOROTHY DELL (Carpenter) New bright orange, reputed early, rating later. 
DR. F. E. BENNETT (Diener) (Prop. A) Med. S. (Com. F. C. 1) 90-95 (Exhib. A) 4x. 
Fiery orange-scarlet, white lines in throat; 7-8 large florets open; a very popular 
red. 
DR. MOODY (Kinyon) (Prop. A-l) Med. S. (Com. F. C. 1) 80-85 (Exhib. B.) 4x. 
Light lavender; good spike-; many open; strong grower; fast propagator. 
DR. NELSON SHOOK (Kunderd) (Prop. A) Tall S. (Com. F. C. 2) 80-85 (Exhib. A) 
4x. Tyrian rose, ruffled; strong grower; tall, heavy spike; 6-8 open; extra 
good. 
EARLY" SUNRISE (Velthuys) (Prop. B) Med. S. (Com. F. C. 1) 65-70 (Exhib. B.) 
4x. Very early; strong spike; good placement; a very fine commercial, only 
fault isi the difficulty to germinate the large, hard shelled bulblets. I believe, 
if it did not have this fault, it would be one of the most popular varieties. 
E. I. FARRINGTON (Rowe) (Prop. A) Tall S. (Com. F. C. 1) 70-75 (Exhib. B) 4x. 
Good grower; color a soft yellow self, a very good yellow. 
EMBERS (Hornberger) (Prop. A.) Tall. (Com. F. C. 1) 80-85. (Exhib. B) 4x. 
Prim-Grand. Another sport of Aflame, not alone a color sport, but with this 
variety some structural changes as well, it grows as tall and opens as many as 
Aflame and Alight, but the individual florets are not quite as large, the color is 
outstanding, a blend of begonia rose with a creamy pink, giving a general hair 
stripe effect. 
EMILE AUBRUN (Lemoine) (Prop. A) Med. S. (Com. F. C. 2) 85-90 (Exhib. A) 4x. 
Coppery bronze; large red blotch; 8-12 blooms open; large flowers; good place¬ 
ment, and good propagator. 
FANNY CROSBY" (Carpenter) (Prop. B) (Med. S.) Com. F. C. 1 (75-80) (Exhib. B.) 
4x. Large, creamy white, yellow throat; good spike; large flowers; a worth¬ 
while variety. 
FRANK McCOY (Briggs ) (Prop. B) Tall. S. (Com. F. C. 1) 80-8 5 (Exhib. A) 4x. 
Tall large pink; many open. 
GATE OF HEAVEN (Pfitzer) New yellow, data lacking for complete rating this 
season. 
GERTRUDE PFITZER (Prop. D.) Med. S. (70-75) 4x. Light blue with violet center; 
large flowers; a nice variety; good blue. 
GIANT NYAfPH (Coleman) (Prop. A 1) Med. S. (Com. F. C. 1) 80-85 (Exhib. B.) 4x. 
Large, light salmon-rose pink; one of our best commercial pinks; very strong 
grower. We have seen this variety produce fine bloom when others were a 
failure. 
GLADDIE BOY (Bill) (Prop. A) Med. S. (Com. F. C. 1) 70-75 (Exhib. B.) 4x. 
Early salmon pink; very fine. Prim GrancL 
GOLDEN DREAM (Groff) (Prop. A) Tall (Com. F. C. 1) 95-100 (Exhib. A) 4x. 
Tall, strong grower; long stems; fine placement; 7-10 open; a very clear, deep 
yellow. Do not cut buds tight. To be at its best, cut when 1 or 2 blooms have 
opened.____

4x. Note: Somewhat subject to storage rot, read what we say under (Diseases).

us a good grower and propagator.
