A GLADIOLUS FANCIER'S CATALOG 
31 
Some of our most beautiful glads are unquestionably found in the light pink section. Airy Dream will prove a real 
thrill to beauty lovers. Angelus seemed finer than ever this past summer. "The most beautiful small decorative in exist¬ 
ence" is the unanimous verdict of everyone who has seen Angelica—an unbelievably waxy and heavily frilled little 
flower. Of the three sister seedlings, Angelica, Gretel and Puritan, it is going to be hard to decide which is the best, 
though each is quite distinct. New Era was exceptional again last season, while Carillon and Morning Serenade 
gave us some very lovely spikes.

While Rima is somewhat unconventional as to placement, its delicate orchid shade and frosty sheen invariably 
endear it to every garden visitor. Nancy Ann is an extraordinarily beautiful rose-pink as grown on both Coasts, but 
comes near being of midget size with us. Chamouny, like many Picardy seedlings, varies in its length of spike. At its 
best it is one of the tallest growers we have. The color is a little lighter than that old favorite. Crinkles, but the florets 
are several times as large.

this past 
season. 
producing truly superb 
spikes of silky 
rose-red. Leona proved a magnifi- 
cently tall grower. Red Giant was rather good, but some may think the white mid-ribs provide too strong a contrast. 
Dream O'Beauty continues to evoke the acclaim of garden visitors. Timbuctoo, though rich, came very short with us.
