NEW BEDFORD, MASS. 
13 
AUREATE (Whiteley, New Zealand) — 
A good colored yellow with a slight 
crimson stripe in the throat and 
heavily ruffled, as are most of Miss 
Whiteley's varieties, which gives it 
plenty of substance. Those that 
like ruffled yellows will want Aur¬ 
eate and Mrs. G. Wade. L 35c, M 
20c, S 2-20c, Bits. 4-15c. 
AUTUMN GLORY (Errey, Australia, 1934) 
— The name suggests the color one 
would expect in this gladiolus and 
it is made up of many autumn 
shades which are most difficult to 
describe in any other way. The 
flowers are of good size and ten 
or more open in perfect placement 
on a good spike. L 80c, M 40c, S 
25c, Bits. 2-20c. 
AVE MARIA (Plitzer, Germany) — One 
of the older blues that makes this 
an outstanding variety and still 
holds its place as one of the best. 
L 4-20c, M 7-20c, S 10-15c, Bits. 
50-lOc. 
AVIGNON (Errey, Australia, 1933) — 
A sport of the famous Mrs. S. A. 
Errey and is identical in spike 
construction, but the color is a very 
unusual silvery pink with a large 
plum blotch which makes a pleas¬ 
ing color combination. It does not 
burn in the sun as does Mrs. Errey 
and being a good propagator, we 
believe it will become popular. 
Would fall in the A. O. C. class 
in the shows. L 20c, M 2-20c, S 
3-20c, Bits. 5-15c. 
AW ATE A (Burns, Australia) — Peach 
blossom darker pink toward the 
edges of the petals and a light 
yellow throat. Pretty coloring, 
makes a nice straight spike with 
about ten open; another fine variety 
from this originator. L $7.50, M 
$5.00, S $2.50, Bits. 75c each. 
AYRSHIRE (Mair, Scotland)—A strong, 
rose lilac with decided white blotch. 
Typical Mair spike with over twenty 
buds perfectly placed; ten or more 
opening at once and this one should 
replace many novelties such as: 
Duchess of York, Roi Albert and 
Hinemoa. L 2-15c, M 4-15c, S 6-15c, 
Bits. 40-15c. 
AZALEA (Plitzer, Germany) — A pretty 
lively red going deeper in the 
throat with a raspberry feather and 
white dart; eight very large flowers 
open at once. Large only—50c 
each. 
BAD HOMBURG (Barth, Germany 1933) 
— The outstanding centifolia pink 
color of this new variety is very 
fine. Some have said it is the 
nicest in color of any similar shade. 
It is a strong healthy grower; makes 
tall spikes with the blooms well 
arranged. Early midseason; the 
best of Barth's new ones. L $1.50, 
M $1.00, S 50c, Bits. 15c each. 
BAGDAD (Palmer, Canada) — This 
huge well known dark smoky rose 
needs no description; wins at most 
every show. L 3-15c, M 6-15c, S 
15-15c, Bits. 100-15c. 
BARON VON WYNBERGEN (Alkemade, 
Holland) — Large salmon rose glad 
with a large carmine blotch; a 
strong grower; flowers are very 
large and of good texture. Large 
only—20c each. 
BEN (Mair, Scotland) — A large red 
scarlet slatey at the edges and 
with a rich white throat. Flowers 
are large and are well placed on 
tall spikes of twenty buds; one of 
Mair's best new ones. L 40c, M 
25c, S 2-25c, Bits. 5-15c. 
BENTLEIGH (Gilrey, Australia) — A 
warm cream color with a very small 
feather of violet. Opens many 
florets at a time perfectly placed 
on a long spike. One of the best 
exhibition varieties in the light col¬ 
ored section and being a good 
propagator will go far as a com¬ 
mercial. L 5-30c, M 6-20c, S 10-20c, 
Bits. 30-15c.
