ECHO HEIGHTS GLADIOLUS FARM 
well placed on long spike— 
stands heat remarkably well. I 
believe this will be in great de¬ 
mand as a cut flower variety. 
(L. 1 for $3.00; M. 1 for $2.50; 
Bits. 30c each.) 
\ 
ROBERT THE FIRST (A. J. 
W ilk us)—Rose pur,ple. Grows 
tall with 20 to 23 buds. A row 
of these are as straight and 
uniform as a line of soldiers. 
(L. 1 for 25c; M. 1 for 15c; S. 
1 for 10c; Bits. 10 for 10c.) 
ROSEMARIE PFITZER) —A 
large creamy white, tinted and 
flecked pink. A real show flower 
ruffled and many out. Requires 
good culture. (L. 1 for 25c; M. 2 
for 20c; S. 2 for 15c; Bits. 10 
for 20c.) 
ROSEX (Palmer)—A salmon 
scarlet shading to rose. Many 
open. We won first at the 1934 
Empire State Show for most 
buds and blooms with a spike 
of this grown from a No. 3 bulb. 
(L. 3 for 20c; M. 3 for 15c; S. 
5 for 10c; Bits. 15 for 10c. 
RAMESSES—Large purple. A 
very distinct form and coloring. 
(L. 1 for 15c; M. 2 for 15c.) 
ROTENBERG (Pr.) — Bright 
deep red with black-red blotch. 
A very rich lustrous color, with 
tall spike and large flowers. Ob¬ 
tainable of only a very few 
growers in this country. Good 
propagator. (L. 1 for 60c; M. 1 
for 40c; S. 1 for 30c; Bits. 10 
for 40c. 
ROYAL GOLD (Pfitzer) — An¬ 
other new one from this noted 
originator. A beautiful yellow, 
large and early. I have had as 
many as 8 blooms out on spikes 
grown from No. 6 bulbs. (L. 1 
for $3.50; M. 1 for $2.50; S. 1 
for $1.25; Bits. 2 for 50c.) 
SALMON EMPEROR (Roo- 
zan)—Salmon orange, deeper 
feather. Spike sometimes rath¬ 
er stubby. Very nicely ruffled. 
(L. 1 for 10c; M. 3 for 15c; Bits. 
100 for 20c.) 
SCHENECTADY (Stevens) — 
Coral red streaks on rose ash. 
(L. 3 for 15c; M. 5 for 15c.) 
SERENADE (Mitsch)—A pure 
pink, white with blotch. Not 
too strong a grower, but opens 
about ten beautiful flowers at 
once. (L. 1 for 10c; M. 3 for 
15c; Bits. 10 for 10c.) 
SHIRLEY TEMPLE (Pruitt)— 
This new cream with a darker 
throat created a great sensa¬ 
tion in Oregon in ’36, where it 
was shown with seven out and 
florets, measuring over 6 inches 
in width. A very vigorous grow¬ 
er and good germination from 
bulblets. (L. 1 for $3.75; M. 1 
for $2.00; S. 1 for $1.00; Bits. 1 
for 50c; 10 for $4.00.) 
SALBACH’S ORCHID -Similar 
in form to Minuet but of a 
pinker shade. Wonderful in 
some sections. (L. 3 for 15c; 12 
for 60c.) 
SIEGFRIED (Mitsch)—Color a 
rose pink somewhat overlaid; 
red with white throat and white 
splashes on the upper petals. 
This should be a winner in the 
large decorative class as it 
opens up to 13 well placed, 
medium sized blooms on nice 
spike. At least, this is a very 
lovely novelty. (L. 1 for 75c; M. 
1 for 60c; S. 1 for 40c; Bits. 10 
for 40c.)
