Orange Delight 
Artistically graceful and “distinctly different” is the general comment 
about this unusual Glad. It is a small decorative variety with a charm 
that is hard to describe. The color is a combination of apricot orange 
overlaid with bittersweet orange. Laciniated petals add to its beauty. The 
graceful spike and slender stem make it the ideal flower for artistic 
arrangement in bowls and vases. 
Orange Delight has been a consistent winner at the shows. Major 1936 
awards are as follows— 
INTERNATIONAL HORTICULTURAL SHOW First prize, amateur class 
Grand Champion over all colors 
AMERICAN GLADIOLUS SOCIETY SHOW First prize, open class 
MINNESOTA GLADIOLUS SOCIETY SHOW First prize, open and amateur classes 
MINNESOTA STATE FAIR First prize, open class 
We predict a great future for Orange Delight as a cut flower variety 
for select florist trade. It is a very early bloomer, vigorous grower and 
good propagator. Growers who are looking for something different to offer 
their trade should get started with this fine variety. The price is very low 
considering there is very little stock in existence. 
Bulbs (any size), 40c each; $3.20 per 10.
