THE GLADIOLUS FANCIER’S 
YELLOW 
AMBERGLOW 77 *— ft Dec. Soft, but 
brilliant, clear unmarked amber yellow. 
Its color value at once removes it from the 
commonplace and its fine cut flower habits 
join to give it high ranking. 7-8 open, 16- 
18 buds. Early. Ea. L3.00 M2.00 SI.25 
Bits (100,6.00) 
BETSY BOB-UP 110 *—fJJ Exh. A Betty 
Nuthall sport. Identical habits, so would 
be bound to “go places” even if of inferior 
color. But this break produced a rugged 
gladiolus in a much-needed color-smooth, 
primrose yellow, beautifully overlaid with 
a delicate peach pink, which diminishes 
as the florets open up the spike. Since 
Betty Nuthall ranks fourth in the Ameri¬ 
can Gladiolus Society Symposium, you 
may readily understand what will become 
of a sport with more attractive color 
(witness Marmora, sport of Emile Aubrun) 
Though only introduced last year, prices 
are already reasonable, due to Nuthall 
propagation habits.
