HEBERLING'S GLADIOLUS 
15 
NETHERLAND PRINCE (Stevens—1930) Bright salmon pink, white throat. This 
very tall, straight spike carries from six to eight large open flowers. A good 
exhibition variety, with great possibilities as a commercial. 
NEW ERA (Ellis) A beautifully ruffled rich pink which has caused much favorable 
comment the past two years. Good propagator and bulblets germinate well. It 
will undoubtedly become a great commercial when stock is more plentiful. You 
can’t go wrong on this one. 
NINTH SYMPHONY (Pfitzer) An immense exhibition variety with giant flowers of a 
vivid salmon red. One of Pfitzer’s largest and best introductions. 
OLIVE MARIE BROWN (Indian Hollow Farms) A small decorative with graceful spike 
forty to forty-five inches tall. Color a rich apricot orange with petals of a beautiful 
irregular form. It is different and outstanding. 
ORANGE BUTTERFLY (Salbach—1927) A glowing, bronzy orange prim. Unlike many 
primulinus varieties, this one opens many florets at once. 
ORANGE KING (Steves—1932) Very lightly flaked salmon orange, fine red lines in 
throat. Eight or nine are open at once with twenty to twenty-two buds on a 
tall, slender, straight spike often over six feet tall. A good prim, grand. 
ORANGE PRINCESS (DeGroot—1932) Purest salmon orange, slightly lighter in throat, 
small crimson feather deep in lower petals, wide open flowers of wonderful form 
and perfectly arranged, slightly ruffled. Fine cut flower and exhibition variety. 
ORANGE QUEEN (Pfitzer—1919) A tall orange yellow primulinus grandiflorus. 
ORANGE SOVEREIGN (Steves—1932) Light orange buff, slightly suffused salmon 
toward tips of petals. The color does not fade or burn in hot sunshine. This tall 
spike has 8 to 10 slightly ruffled, large blooms open at one time. Received an 
Award of Merit in England. 
ORANGE WONDER (Kemp—1927) A fine, rich orange. 
OUR SELECTION (Ball—1928) A large smoky salmon with red feather edged with 
yellow. 
PAUL PFITZER (Pfitzer—1924) A tall velvety purple. It is the most popular variety 
of this class that we grow. 
PELEGRINA (Pfitzer—1930) The richest and deepest of Pfitzer’s blues. Pelegrina has 
the same fine color as Aida—without its red-throat blotch. 
PENSACOLA (Christ) Pure scarlet without markings. A scarlet of outstanding merit. 
PFITZER’S TRIUMPH (Pfitzer—1925) A gigantic scarlet. Huge, wide open flowers 
open flat against the strong spike. It does not stand the heat well. 
PHYLLIS McQUISTON (Stewart—1933) The color is a beautiful shrimp pink with a 
slight pencil line of rose in the center of the white throat. The spike is long and 
erect, carrying well five or more of these beautiful large flowers open at a time. 
It has the best of substance and is a good propagator. Phyllis McQuiston is rapidly 
being recognized for what it really is—a wonderful glad. 
PICARDY (Palmer—1930) Truly immense spikes carry as many as eight huge open 
flowers. The color is so rich a salmon pink that an average vocabulary is unable 
to describe it. 
PINK SELECTION (Australia) A sport of “Our Selection’’ and when grown under 
favorable conditions in the late Fall this variety produces the largest and finest 
pink florets that I have ever seen produced barring none. A very large straight 
spiked pink with ten six-inch florets. Believe it does best in cool weather. 
PIRATE (Palmer—1930) Shades and tints of pomegranate purple. Lighter in upper 
throat. Good placement on a tall spike makes it a real dark beauty. 
POLAR ICE (Pfitzer) A pure white of good size and very early. We consider it a good 
commercial, and it should make a very good exhibition. 
PRAIRIE GOLD (Corrington—1934) A very deep yellow. It has a tall, straight spike 
with good placement. Prairie Gold has won numerous firsts since it was intro¬ 
duced. A first for vase of three spikes at both the National and Illinois shows, 
also it was awarded the blue ribbon as champion decorative spike of the Illinois 
Gladiolus Society show. 
PR EDOM INATOR (Kunderd) A tall salmon scarlet that has received many prize 
awards.
