SNOWDEN (Ball, Australia) A great exhibition white with a slight feathering; about the 
color of Joerg’s White but a better show variety having the long spike with well placed 
flowers so much desired by exhibitors. Don’t let the low price mislead you as to its 
quality. Champion bloom in Australia and a winner at Boston. We believe this to be 
a fine commercial as it is a rapid propagator and gives extremely fine spikes, every one 
straight even from small sized bulbs. Anyone wishing a white for florists should give 
this one a trial. M 6-1 5c, S 10-15c, Bits. 50-15c. 
SOMMERKLE9D (Pfitzer! A most delightful and pleasing salmon pmk with lighter lines 
in the petals and a creamy white throat. About six large flat florets open at once on a 
fine well formed spike. L $2.00, M $1.40, S 75c, Bits. 20c each. 
SONATINE (Pfitzer) A tall light pink, sometimes flecked, that seems to have as good a com¬ 
mercial future as any of Pfitzer’s recent ones. The flowers are large and of good sub¬ 
stance and it propagates easily. L 3-25c, M 3-15c, S 5-1 5c, Bits. 50-20c. 
SOUTHERN CROSS (Whiteley, New Zealand)—A fine deep red self that is a very strong 
grower and rapid increaser. The large round florets do not burn even in the worst 
weather. Opens seven to eight on a straight twenty-bud spike. It should become popular 
particularly in hot climates. L 3-1 5c, M 6-1 5c, S 10-1 5c, Bits. 50-1 5c. 
Another New Hampshire customer writes:—-“Should have written you long ago and 
thanked you for the very nice bulbs you sent me and the very liberal count. In the last 
lot of bulbs I had a great many blooms measuring from 5" to 7" across.” 
This Michigan customer wrote:—“The bulbs you sent to the Southwestern Michigan 
Gladiolus Society were sold for some of the highest bids at our auction.”
