FANTASIA (Brauer 1939) 
A lovely medium pink self color with 
small deeper feather in throat, opening; 
up to six to 5-inch florets at one 
time on straig:ht spike of medium height. 
A seedling of King Arthur from which 
it derives its large heavily ruffled florets 
of thick substance which add very much 
to its beauty. Healthy grower and fine 
propagator, probably producing larger 
florets than any other heavily ruffled 
pink. 
Large bulbs $1.00 each. 
Medium bulbs 60c each. 
Small bulbs 30c each. 
Bulblets 10 for 50c. 
FORTUNE (Brauer 1937) 
Very deep rich pink of even color with 
red lines in throat; 6 to 7 six-inch florets 
open at one time on 5%-foot spike, al¬ 
ways straight and florets perfectly 
placed. Unusually strong and husky 
grower of heavy and lasting substance. 
Large size makes it an exhibition va¬ 
riety but it has all the qualities of a 
commercial. This variety received a 
Vote of Commendation from the Mary¬ 
land Gladiolus Society Test Garden for 
1937. Good propagator. 
Large bulbs $1.00 each; 10 for $7.50. 
Medium 60c each; 10 for $4.00.

creamy throat. Opens eight 3^/4 to 4 inch 
florets at one time on a very tall stiff 
wiry stem. Very early bloomer and con¬

grower and should become the leading 
commercial purple.
