A BLUE BOOK OF RARE GLADS 
25 
propagator; opens 7; fine commercial cut flower. I like it 
as well as any. 
REGENT—(Palmer)—B17—Deep scarlet; not much for me 
this summer due to extreme heat. Some say will open up 
to 10; better color than Koehl; just fair propagation. 
ROYAL PRINCE*— (Fletcher-Ellis)—A27—Mammoth pur¬ 
ple; self; tail; opens 6 or more; fine addition to the class; 
wonderful propagator; nice bulbs. Another Ellis seedling 
worth while. 
ROBERT BURNS*—(Christ)—B28—This is of course the 
finest deep blue yet introduced; however, until this year we 
have been very short on it; stock is a little more plentiful 
this year; not low in price yet, however. Opens 7 on a fine 
spike; fair propagator; HYBRIDIZE with this. 
SPANISH C4VALIER—(Ellis)—B17—Tall, straight spike 
with 7 open; rich salmon scarlet with diffused and stippled 
creamy blotch; attractive and novel; not so good as Beacon 
however, although tmaybe taller; good propagator. 
STAR OF BETHLEHEM*—(Pfitzer)—Al—Saw a spike of 
(his at the Indiana show this summer that would make any¬ 
one gasp; had nine open, immense, immaculate flerets of 
purest white. Yes, it’s a comer; not such a fine propagator. 
STEVE’S CAMPFIRE*— (Steves) — C17 — A REAL RED 
decorative; not scarlet nor orange but pure self crimson 
opens 6 on tall prim spike; opens to 5 inches across; fine 
propagator. 
SYMPHONY*—(Palmer)—B21—Another good Palmer vari¬ 
ety that will make its own way. Near the shade of Cory¬ 
phee but STRAIGHT, tall, grand; soft light rose pink with 
clear cream throat; commercial variety upening up to 7; 
fine propagator, and all around good variety. 
..SERENADE*—(Mitsch)—B13—My cho'cie of Mitsch var¬ 
ieties so far. Color is glorious pink and white; good cutting 
spike; graceful and not heavy; opens 7 for me. I recom¬ 
mend it. Fine propagator 
SUPERWHITE*— (Ellis)—Bl— Fine new white, pure Phipps 
type; opens 8 or more; looks to me like a competitor for 
first honors with M. of Orleans; maybe lot larger; fine 
facing; propagator.
