Pelegrina 
A ])ure dark violet blue, 
lower ])etals somewhat dark¬ 
er. Stands excessive heat as 
do few otlier varieties. AVhen 
the first floret opens, nearly 
all the 16-18 buds are show¬ 
ing color. This makes the 
si)ike with its perfectly faced 
flowers very attractive. There 
are 6-8 florets open at a time. 
A good grower and a S])len- 
did })ropagator. Every one 
who grows glads should have 
it. 
Probably the most consist¬ 
ent winner of any bine Glad¬ 
iolus originated. Winner at 
l)ractically all the leading 
s h 0 w s i n A m erica and 
Enro])e.
