NEW ERA (Ellis-Majeski) 
A beautiful shade of pink with soft 
cream throat, opening 6 to 8 heavily 
ruffled and frilled florets at one time. 
One of the most beautiful colors in 
gladiolus but florets are rather small. 
Large bulbs 50c each. 
Medium 35c; Small 20c each. 
Bulblets 5c each; 10 for 35c. 
NOLA (Brauer 1937) 
Unusually deep pink color with white 
midribs on lower petals, opening six to 
seven 5-inch florets at once; well placed 
on tall straight spike. This one has pro¬ 
duced some of the most magnificent 
spikes we have ever grown. Produces 
many round bulblets which germinate 
easily and one of the few varieties 
which grows large bulbs from bulblet 
stock for us. Blooms 75 to 80 days. We 
believe this will be a money maker for 
commercial growers. 
Large bulbs 35c each; 10 for $2.50. 
Medium bulbs 20c each; 10 for $1.50. 
Small bulbs 10c each; 10 for 75c. 
Bulblets 10 for 15c; 100 for $1.00. 
1,000 for $7.50. 
PEGGY LOU (Wilson-Evans) 
(See illustration page twelve) 
Smooth, deep shrimp pink, with a 
slight rosy cast and a slight peppering 
of deeper rose in the throat. This variety 
was produced from the same cross that 
gave us Picardy, and it seems destined 
to even greater popularity. One of the 
greatest prize winners of all time. At 
1938 shows, has received a total of 19 
blue ribbons and 4 grand champions, 
award of merit Maryland Gladiolus 
Society Trial Gardens, N. E. G. S. silver 
medal, and best basket Grants Pass, 
Oregon, show. Better get an early start 
with this one. 
Large bulbs $1.00 each. 
Medium bulbs 75c each. 
Bulblets 20c each; 10 for $1.60. 
PURITAN (Baerman) 
Color an exquisite pure pink instead 
of white which might be suggested by 
the name. Opens 3 to 5 heavily ruffled 
florets on tall straight spike, and alto¬ 
gether it is a most charming variety. 
Large bulbs $1.00 each. 
Medium 75c; Small 50c each. 
Bulblets 12 for 20c.

some time. Good propagator.
