FESTIVAL QUEEN (Salbach 1934)—A huge 
clear geranium pink self with soft car- 
mine markings on lower petals. Immense 
blooms over 6 inches across, 5 or 6 open 
at one time with 12 or 13 buds to come. 
Consistently placed, and correctly faced, 
stems always straight. One of the parents 
of Grand Opera, our sensational giant 
pink. Festival Queen is a “must have” 
for breeders because its characteristic 
huge well expanded florets carry on free- 
ly in its offspring. Wide rounded blooms 
give the appearance of greater size. Avail- 
able at a much lower price than others 
of the new “giant” gladiolus.
