GERTRUDE SWENSON (Swenson, Aus¬ 
tralia) — Beautiful shade of mauve 
with a white blotch on the lower 
petals and a light mauve feather. 
The spike is the ideal of the ex¬ 
hibitor, placement perfect with the 
medium size florets holding their 
size very evenly up the spike; opens 
fourteen at once. Has won many 
championships in Australia and 
won first at Boston in 1935. L 60c, 
M 40c, S 20c, Bits. 10-25c. 
GLADDIE BOY (Purple, U. S.) —A pretty 
soft orange shade with light yellow 
throat and veining. It is slightly 
ruffled and has good substance. 
Very early, one of the most profit¬ 
able commercials that we grow. 
L 5-25c, M 5-15c, S 5-lOc, Bits. 100- 
20c. 
GLADYS (Mair, Scotland) — Bright pink 
with wide open blooms; lower pet¬ 
als have strong white throat mark¬ 
ings; very long spike with nineteen 
buds and ten open. A pretty glad. 
It makes a fine commercial variety 
as well as one for the exhibitor. 
Bulbs are white and bruise easily. 
L 15c, M 2-15c, S 3-15c, Bits. lO-lOc. 
GLADYS BROWN (Brown, Australia) —

variety producing long spikes which 
open ten or more florets at once. 
L $1.00, M 75c, S 50c, Bits. 10c each. 
GLADYS CLEGG (Symons, Australia )— 
This variety, after considerable 
winning in Australia, was sent over 
to me by Mr. Symons in order that 
it could be determined whether it 
did as well here as in Australia. 
I have had the pleasure of growing 
it three seasons and consider it a 
topnotch variety. The first year it 
bloomed it was shown at the Pre 
Show at Boston and attracted much 
favorable comment. The next year 
it was shown in my new variety 
entry and last year it was given 
an Award of Commendation by 
the seedling committee which is 
the highest award that can be given 
the first year. The color is a light 
apricot with a strong garnet blotch 
that is edged with gold. It will 
open up to eight blooms well 
placed on willowy spikes that are 
adapted for decorative work. It 
is a good propagator and one of 
the very first to bloom; the past 
season it was planted at the same 
time as Halley and bloomed with 
it which will give a good check 
on its earliness. Do not let the low 
introductory price influence you for 
it is a glad worth far more than 
this price might indicate, if you 
should judge equality by price. L 
50c, M 30c, S 20c. 
GLEN (Mair, Scotland) — A deep pure 
pink overlaid with smoke, large 
white throat markings and white rib 
lines. Opens six to eight on a 
sixteen bud spike; a good propaga¬ 
tor and will be fine for either ex¬ 
hibition or commercial use. L 75c, 
M 50c, S 25c, Bits. 3-15c. 
GLENBURN (Mair, Scotland) — Very 
much like Queen Mary except for 
color; more ruffled and seldom 
shows any pink at edges. One of 
the choicest cream colored glads. 
A winner the past season and in 
much demand by the florists. L 
2-15c, Bits. 20-10c. 
GLENROWAN (Reeve, Australia) — Sil¬ 
very white heavily flecked and 
marked with a mauve ruby throat; 
good spike, eight to ten open. L 
40c, M 25c, S 15c, Bits. 5-15c. 
GLOWING EMBERS (Errey, Australia) 
— A very brilliant clear orange 
flecked darker. A seedling of Mrs. 
S. A. Errey and Tangerine. The 
florets are more resistant to burn¬ 
ing than either parent. Six or eight 
florets open at one time; one of Er- 
rey's very finest varieties. L $5.00, 
M $3.50, S $2.50, Bits. 50c each. 
GOLD DUST (Goldstaub) (Ptitzer) — A 
fine yellow that was introduced by 
Pfitzer himself in Germany and it
