Kaylor Glads Win High Praise 
Writing under the caption, “Apprais¬ 
ing the Offerings in Modern Gladiolus,” 
Fred W. Cassebeer, of New York City, in 
the February issue of The Flower Grow¬ 
er, Albany, New York, has the following 
to say about two Kaylor Glads: 
“Emeline Manning. Has the same 
lovely coloring as is found in the rose 
Token. A uniform cream lightly flushed 
reddish orange on reverse of petals. Flor¬ 
ets of prim grand type moderately hood¬ 
ed and widely spaced on long straight 
spikes. Unusually attractive because of its 
fine coloring. 
“Leschi. Deep purplish maroon with 
no markings. Good spike with excellent 
form and placement. An eminently desir¬ 
able exhibition variety of sombre hue that 
is very dignified in its bearing.” 
The Flower Grower is one of the 
leading floral magazines of the United 
States and Mr. Cassebeer is a recognized 
authority on Glads. The stock from which 
he grew the flowers judged was purchased 
of us last spring. It will be noted both 
these varieties perform a little differently 
in New York from what they do here. 
Emeline Manning seems to have a more 
reddish reverse coloring and Leschi seems 
to have failed to develop the very black 
velvet spot deep in the throat. 
Our Delphiniums Are “Tops , ‘’ 
For the past ten years we have been 
gathering together the best of the Pacific 
Coast and foreign strains of Delphiniums. 
Cross polonizing these strains we have 
saved the resultant seed, grown other 
plants from it and repeated the process, 
saving only the very best plants for our 
hybridizing work. The result of this has 
been that we now have what we believe 
to be one of the finest lot of seed bearing 
plants in this part of the country. Visitors 
who have been in the leading Delphinium 
gardens of this country arM.England have 
told us they have never ’^een finer stock 
than that in our garden. Next year we 
hope to have a number of these in suf¬ 
ficient quantity to sell under name. There 
are fine large single flowers, semi-double 
and double in shades from light blue thru 
deep blue, lavender to brilliant purple. 
This year we are offering selected seed 
from these mother plants at 25c for a 
small packet and 50c for a large. Limited 
quantities of one year plants in mixed 
colors at 25c each. 
Some Better Dahlias 
Not a great big list containing many 
that rely principally on their names to 
distinguish them from others; but a list 
of good performers, each one distinctive. 
Tubers are 20c each unless otherwise 
noted, and we guarantee each one to grow 
or we will replace if you send ’em back.

Will Order Again 
“We were so pleased with the results 
from the Glad bulbs bought of you this 
spring that we are going to get more 
next season. We never use fertilizer on 
our flowers, prefering compost of sod, 
leaves and grass clippings. We find it 
works fine and our Dahlias were the ta*k 
of the neighborhood this season.” D. V.
