FLYING CLOUD FARMS INC. 
TONCOLA (Errey) —A fine exhibition cream becoming more creamy in the throat with a few 
dusty carmine lines. This variety will open eight or more perfectly placed blooms on the 
long typical Errey spikes. L $2.50, M $1.75, S $1.00, Bits. 25c each. 
TOSCA (Barth) —F iery blood red, marvelously shaded darker in the throat. Enormous florets 
have often been compared to an Amaryllis. A really grand glad! Early. L 10c, M 
2-1 2c, Bits. 20-10c. 
TRAUMEREI (Pfitzer) —Enormous light lavender florets make this variety a delegate for the 
“giant” class. Although it only opens about six or seven blooms, it makes a tremendous 
spike due to the large florets and long flower head. L 20c, M 2-20c, S 3-20c, Bits. 
20-1 5c. 
TRAUERMANTEL (Pfitzer)— A rather new one that is two shades of violet, the lower petals 
being of the darker shade. This makes a real nice novelty and there are no others of this 
color combination. L $2.00, M $1.50, S $1.00, Bits. 20c each. 
TUNIA’S TRIUMPH (Tunia) —This one has been called a “Triumph” for exhibition and 
commercial purposes. The enormous red florets seem to have a slight ruffle which adds 
very much to the attractiveness of this variety. A tall grower that produces fine long 
spikes of many buds and opens about seven florets at once. A dandy to be sure! 
L $3.50, M $2.25, S $1.25, Bits. 35c ea. 
UPPER TEN (Alkemade)— A new orange scarlet with a white line in the throat. The color 
is extremely good, makes a nice clean spike, and is a good propagator. L 10c, M 2-1 Oc, 
S 3-10c, Bits. 30-IOc. 
VAGABOND PRINCE (Palmer) —Called an “irridescent garnet brown with a glowing scarlet 
blotch”. Eight or so medium sized blooms open at one time on the slender spikes; florets 
will fade unless taken in out of the sun when they first open. L 20c, M 15c, S 10c, 
Bits. 15-20C. 
VAN TIENHOVEN (Duyn) —A brilliant red glad with extra large florets on handsome spikes. 
Scored 84% as a commercial glad for cut flower purposes at Pappas Nurseries last season. 
L 20c, M 15c, S 3-20c, Bits. 10-20c. 
VATER RHEIM (Barth) —Bright carmine red, spotted darker. Very large flowers well ar¬ 
ranged on the spike. A nice new variety. L 50c, M 30c, S 20c, Bits. 4-20c. 
VELA (Heemskerk) —B right rose red making long spikes with flowers well placed. A pretty 
one!—F. C. C. Haarlem, 1937. L 50c, M 30c, S 20c, Bits. 4-20c. 
VREDENBURC (Pfitzer) —Another fine early white from the “father of the whites”. We 
feel that this variety may replace the now popular Polar Ice. The large florets open 
flatter than those of Polar Ice and have the texture of Maid of Orleans. L $2.00, M 
$1.20, S 60c, Bits. 20c each. 
WAIKAWA (Burns) —F. C. C., 1935. Warm rich rosine pink with light cherry blotch, out¬ 
lined with cream. Nicely ruffled, wide open flowers of perfect form. Looks to be a 
good one. L $2.00, M $1.25, S 75c, Bits. 15c each. 
WALK-OVER (Pfitzer) —Large clear scarlet florets with the center petal faintly outlined 
white. The florets are extra large and broad, lying flat to the stem. In Holland the 
past season it was voted the best midearly gladiolus. L $2.00, M $1.20, S 60c, Bits. 
20c each. 
WALKURE (Pfitzer) —An early lavender pink with white in the throat. Color is extremely 
nice and it makes a most pleasing spike for cut flowers. L 25c, M 15c, S 2-1 5c, Bits. 
5-15c. 
WAMPUM (Winsor) —See Flying Cloud Farms’ Introductions. 
Another Massachusetts customer writes:—“1 cannot resist the temptation of writing to say 
how pleased I was with your exhibit at the N. E. G. S. show and particularly of the 
basket of blooms of ‘Garden of the Nations.' I was so impressed with this variety that 
after each of my many trips around the hall I always returned to gaze at these beauties.” 
A Michigan customer wrote;—“1 am giving you this order because I appreciate your pre¬ 
vious generosity and the quality of your stock and also because of my desire to try 
your new varieties. The bulbs I received from you last year were of best health and 
very clean.” 
A New York customer writes:—After having most excellent success with the bulblets purch¬ 
ased from you last spring I am sending this order. The bulblets grew splendidly, quite 
a number blooming, and the rest made fine bulbs for this season’s bloom and quantities 
of bulblets in most cases. Among those that bloomed were two ‘extra’ bulblets of Glow¬ 
ing Embers.”
