But I know better. This would not supply my customers. So I have several other 
plants as large as this. It’s a case of “The More the Merrier.” 
“Believe it or not,” this glorious sea of Pink Picardy was produced from medium and 
small bulbs. And thousands of spikes were cut and shipped all over the West, before this 
picture was taken. As the fisherman would say, “The big ones got away.” First to bloom 
always the largest spikes.

Palmer’s Pink Picardy at Practically Painless Prices 
What a G-lad! Originated by Mr. E. P. 
Palmer in Canada. 
Pirst shown in IT. S. A. a few years ago. 
Talk about a sensation. I first saw it at the 
National Glad Show in Des Moines, Iowa. 
Since then Picardy has been on the tongue 
of every Glad fan. Many bought even at the 
high prices. Others have been saving up their 
pennies to invest in Picardy as soon as price 
is within reach. 
That price has arrived, ’way ahead of sched¬ 
ule, for reasons I shall explain. Picardy in¬ 
creases amaingly fast. This accounts for 
prices coming down so rapidly. That’s the 
explanation in a coupla nutshells. 
“On your right you will see” a snapshot of 
Picardy, taken right out in the garden by one 
of my Minnesota customers. That’s “Only the 
beginning—only the beginning.” You can’t 
imagine the lovely coloring and the giant size 
of the blossoms. 
Color, soft shrimp pink, without fiecking. 
Blotch of light fiesh pink. Though gigantic 
in size, Picardy is anything but coarse. You 
just fall in love with it at sight. 
Spike of Picardy grown from a “Long” bulb 
No. 2 size by W. W. Kurtz, Grand Rapids, 
Minn. The charming miss is Jane, daughter 
of Mr. and Mrs. Kurtz. Another snapshot of 
the same spike taken next day showed 10 big 
blooms, none wilted. Yes, “What a Glad!”

Mr. T. Girvan writes from Bridgeport, Conn., Aug. 29, 1934: “Wow, what a Glad! My 
Picardy from No. 2 bulb bought of ‘JD’ had 10 giant blooms out and 12 more to come. Glad 
fans here were amazed.”
