M.-S. SUPERFINE GLADIOLUS 
M.-S. 
NOVELTY COLLECTION 
Bagdad. Smoky old rose, deeper toward the 
edges and lighter in the throat. Very large 
flowers and many open at one time. 
Canberra. Beautiful clear yellow blooms on 
tall plants. 
Commander Koehl. A new introduction 
from Europe and one of the finest red vari¬ 
eties; flowers large on tall stems; color, bril¬ 
liant scarlet blood red; grows well under all 
weather conditions. 
Marie Kunderd. Beautiful ruffled snow white 
ot distinct shape. Sometimes faint pink lines 
on the lip. Very early. One of the best 
white varieties. 
Mme. Van Konynenburg. Light violet or 
lavender blue, at least the nearest blue to 
date; early midseason; tall grower. 
Picardy. Clear flesh pink, quite unmarked, 
shading to soft shrimp pink at the petal 
edges, the most exquisite shade imaginable. 
The flowers are unusually wide and well- 
opened, often 6 in. or more across, and as 
many as ten of them in full glory at one 
time on the tall, straight spikes. It cuts well, 
keeps well, and increases rapidly. No other 
pink Gladiolus is more charming in color, or 
more satisfactory in habit.

Mrs. F. C. Hornberger. Many Gladiolus 
have been described as snowy white, but 
very few of them have been without at least 
a faint overlay of ivory, or flushing of pink. 
This sort is really as white as new snow, 
with not even a throat marking. Fine, large, 
ruffled flowers on good spikes. 
M rs. Fred C. Peters. Gorgeously light blue 
with deeper markings, many flowers open on 
long stems.

bright salmon orange, with very small, deep¬

light rose salmon; one of the finest exhibition
