MINUET—An exquisite orchid-toned variety, superb in every 
way. Best of its color. Huge florets up to seven inches across, 
one stalk making a bouquet. Majestic in the garden; unsur¬ 
passed as a cut flower; a sure winner in the flower shows. See 
color illustration, page 6, which of course is greatly reduced. 
10c each; 3 for 20c; 6 for 30c; 12 for 50c; 100 for $2.75. 
COMMANDER KOEHL—The World's Finest Red Gladiolus. 
Gorgeous rich glossy pure red flowers of great brilliance, huge 
size, perfect form, and without a speck of any other color. The 
florets are as wide as this page and the stalks shoulder high. 
See color illustration. 10c each; 3 for 20c; 6 for 30c; 12 for 
50c; 100 for $2.75. 
BETTY NUTHALL—Always a Prize Winner. Glowing orange- 
pink with soft yellow throat. The illustration, which is only 
about one-third natural size, gives some idea of the great 
beauty of this magnificent variety, the best of the blended 
colors. One of the remarkable things about this variety is that 
it will sometimes produce as many as five huge spikes to a single 
bulb. It seems unbelievable that so much beauty could come from 
a single bulb. 10c each; 3 for 20c; 6 for 30c; 12 for 50c; 100 
for $2.75. 
MOTHER MACHREE—This variety not only maintains its place 
among the leading varieties, but keeps climbing closer towards the 
top. In the previous symposium it took seventh place; now it 
occupies fifth place. Like the foregoing varieties, it is the leader 
in its class, the color being an invincible lavender, with glints of 
salmon and gold and a delightful yellow area at the throat. 
It is one of the most beautiful flowers grown and a sure winner 
at the flower shows. 10c each; 3 for 20c; 6 for 30c; 12 for 
50c; 100 for $2.75. 
MARMORA—A close competitor of Mother Machree and just as 
handsome, but entirely different, being an exquisite flower of 
unusual lavender-grey, with a bright petunia spot at the throat. 
Huge flowers, many open at once. 10c each; 3 for 20c; 6 for 
30c; 12 for 50c; 100 for $2.75. 
MAID OF ORLEANS—A newcomer and a five-star sensation, 
which jumps immediately to first rank among the whites, taking 
the highest vote of all the white varieties. A huge flower of the 
most aristocratic bearing, with soft cream buds opening to pure 
white. Eight or more florets open at once. The top notch white. 
10c each; 3 for 20c; 6 for 30c; 12 for 50c; 100 for $2.75. 
MR. W. H. PHIPPS—This variety headed the list for many years, 
and is still and always will be one of the most glorious of all 
Gladiolus. The color is o gorgeous salmon pink, with very large 
flowers, many open at once. It is still my own special favorite 
and if I could have only one Gladiolus, it would be W. H. Phipps. 
10c each; 3 for 20c; 6 for 30c; 12 for 50c; 100 for $2.75. 
BAGDAD—A gigantic flower of an unusual old-rose color, being 
in a class by itself. Florets seven inches across, ten open at once, 
on tall spikes. 10c each; 3 for 20c; 6 for 30c; 12 for 50c; 
100 for $2.75.
