Valentine 
All that the name implies, a real beauty in a bright clear red with large white 
throat. Of strong vigorous growth, it holds six or more open at a time, well 
placed on an always straight tall spike. A striking flower, well liked by all.

Mary Damaris 
(Illustration page 3) 
This is by far the most beautiful shade of soft yellow I have ever seen in 
gladiolus, perfectly clear with white stamens. The placement is ideal and holds 
seven or more large flowers open at one time. It consistently produces 40-inch 
spikes even from small bulbs that are always erect and strong. A free and vigor¬ 
ous growing variety, a good producer. This variety repeatedly wins in its color 
class wherever shown. The illustration on page 3 was made from a photo of the 
three winning spikes at the big Boston Show 1938, where it had previously won. 
Mary Damaris is the most satisfactory cut flower yellow we have. It opens 
perfectly after shipping. We need to work up a larger stock of this variety, and 
oiler only large bulbs this year, at no reduction in price from last year. 
PRICES—Large Bulbs (only), $1.00 each.
