Fall 1938 Price 
of 
Superior Glads 
It would be impossible to list all the Superior Glads but this is an attempt to list 
a goodly part of the more recent better varieties. Most of these varieties are described 
in my spring catalogue and the others, excepting possibly a few which may be sold out, 
will be described in my 1939 catalogue which should be out early in the new year. 
While I have not grown quite as large an acreage this year as last, I believe I shall 
have as good or better bulbs with a larger proportion of the newer kinds. Many kinds 
grown a year ago were necessarily omitted from my 1938 planting in order to make 
room for the many seedlings grown. I expect to introduce one or two more in 1939. 
My past introductions have taken quite well and while they have some faults, as 
do all Glads, I believe that most of them, at least, will prove quite popular varieties. 
Rima has brought many fine reports and is one of the most exquisite of cut flowers. It 
is not a real lavender as some have supposed but a light lilac pink which is very beau¬ 
tiful indoors. Conquest has been more impressive this year than ever and local florists 
prefer it to about anything else I grow. The beautiful blending of salmon and yellow 
with its nice uniform spikes gives promise of its becoming one of the best commercials. 
Zuni has been acclaimed by a good many as the finest smoky Glad on the market and 
among other winnings won Sweepstakes for best spike in the show at Grants Pass. 
Colossus is a large very early pink with good possibilities as a cut flower. Irak, like 
Bagdad, is a splendid grower and some prefer it to Marmora in color. Aachen is one 
of the most beautiful cream colored flowers but is inclined to be rather stubby. 
Those desiring very large quantities are invited to write for special quotations on 
those listed in my wholesale list, and it should be stated which varieties are wanted. 
I wish to thank my many customers for their patronage of the past and for the 
fine letters I have received.

TERMS 
On orders of $5.00 or more, a cash discount of 10% may be deducted; on orders of 
$20.00, 15% may be deducted if cash accompanies order. These discounts do not 
apply to collections. Prices prepaid except wholesale quotations on varieties listed 
at less than $8.00 per 100 for No. 1 bulbs. If some cheaper varieties are ordered with 
more expensive sorts, the entire lot may go by express collect with extra bulbs added 
for transportation costs on the expensive varieties. I prefer to ship stock in the spring 
in most cases but expect to be able to make shipments in December where necessary. 
Due to stock being fumigated with cyanogas* three times, shipments cannot be made 
early in the season. 
I am glad to meet other reliable growers’ quotations except in case of limited 
stocks where large amounts are wanted or on cheap commercial varieties. One bulb 
m.ay be purchased at one-eighth the ten rate, five at the ten rate, and 25 at the hun¬ 
dred rate where item does not total less than 10c.
