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. Legion Trial Gar¬ 
den, Spring Green, Wisconsin, reports— 
Height 60"; head length 27"; No. buds 
17; 5 open, 4 in color; size florets 5"; 
facing and spacing perfect; texture ex¬ 
cellent; ruffled wide-open florets; heavy 
straight stems; foliage very broad, up¬ 
right and healthy. Comment “Nola furn¬ 
ished spikes which demanded attention. 
Long flower head, wonderful placement. 
Comes with yellow midrib in throat; 
throat dusted deeper pink.”

PEGGY LOU (Wilso n-Evans) 
(See illustration page twenty-four) 
Smooth, deep shrimp pink, with 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. We prefer 
it to Picardy and it is one of the great¬ 
est prize winners of all time. At 1939 
gladiolus society shows only 42 firsts, 4 
sectional and 2 grand champions. Better 
take advantage of these prices. 
Large bulbs 30c each; 10 for $2.40. 
Medium 20c each; 10 for $1.60. 
Small 10c each; 10 for SOc. 
Bulblets 5 for 10c; 100 for $1.00. 
REWI FALLU (Fallu) 
A deep blood-red, opening 8 to 10 very 
large florets at one time on vigorous 
plants, 5 V2 to 6 feet tall. Champion seed¬ 
ling at South Australia Gladiolus Show 
1932, and released in U. S. A. 1937. This 
^^ariety has been sensationally publicized 
and stock will be in heavy demand for 
some time. Good propagator. 
Large bulbs 25c each; medium 15c.
