ROSEMARIE PFITZER (Pfitzer) Ruffled 
white tinted pink. Variable in shade 
owing to growing conditions. Good 
spike and placement. 
ROYAL GOLD (Pfitzer) Upper petals yellovv* 
with lower petals deep gold. New. 
SCHWABENGIRL (Pfitzer) Pure pink with¬ 
out blotch. Very early. Good cut-flower. 
SHIRLEY TEMPLE (Pruitt) Cream with 
darker throat. Nicely ruffled. Some 
spikes are very fine, while others are 
inclined to poor placement and crooking. 
SILVERSHEEN (Symons) Salmon-pink with 
white tongue on lower petals. Straight. 
SMILING MAESTRO (Christ) Salmon orange 
and brown. Very popular smoky. 
SNOW PRINCESS (Pfitzer) New. Early 
white similar to Maid of Orleans, al¬ 
though possibly florets are somewhat 
larger. 
SOUTHPORT (Mair) Large light lilic-pink. 
One of the best in this color class. 
SOUTHERN CROSS (Whitely) Brilliant red. 
Excellent propagator. 
SOMMERKLEID (Pfitzer) Salmon-pink with 
effective blotches. 
STAR OF BETHLEHEM (Pfitzer) Snow 
white with tint of cream on lower petal. 
Tall and straight. A fine exhibition 
white and for some mid-western grow¬ 
ers has been an excellent cut-flower. 
Usually makes rather “tough-looking” 
bulbs. 
SURFSIDE (Winsor) Creamy-white with 
darker throat. Tall and straight. Good 
substance. Has won many awards in 
exhibition, both in the United States 
and in England. 
SWEETHEART (Prestgard) Dainty pink and 
white. One of the smaller type glads, 
and fine for table decorations. 
TAKINA (Burns) Large rose-purple. 
TIP-TOP (Pfitzer) Large bright red. Straight, 
wiry spike. Good cut-flower and fine ex¬ 
hibition variety. Slow propagator. 
TOKEN (Crow) Flame salmon with yellow 
throat. Medium size spike and florets. 
Nicely ruffled. Excellent substance. 
Early. Good propagator. May make a 
good, early cut-flower variety. 
TUNIA’S TRIUMPH (Both) Large orange- 
scarlet. Apparently does better in Aus¬ 
tralia than in the United States. 
VREDENBURGH (Holland) New. Large 
pure white. 
WALK-OVER (Holland) New. Large bright 
red. 
WURTEMBERGIA (Pfiitzer) Immense fiery 
scarlet with cream throat. Tall and 
straight. Inclined to poor placement, but 
one of the most brilliant glads in the 
garden. 
YELLOW EMPEROR (Ellis) Good soft yel¬ 
low. For me it has not performed as 
well as Golden Chimes. 
Ralph Pommert admiring a spike 
of Marguerite, his 1939 introduction. 
We do not claim perfection for this 
glad, as imperfect placement of florets 
is not uncommon. It is a clear, strong- 
growing pink with cream throat. Flor¬ 
ets are large and of fine substance. We 
feel this glad has a good future as a 
commercial cut-flower.
