“ELIZABETH THE QUEEN from a No. 5 bulb was not only tall but an exquisite 
shade of lavender and one of the most thrillingly beautiful glad introductions | have seen 
for some time.” —Ralph Baerman, Minn.

Rosy Morn (Large Dec) (Early mid-season) Clear light coral rose, 
awn eS ~~ sometimes flaked darker, with white throat blotch. Opens 
6-8 large beautiful, well placed blooms on a good heavy spike of sufficient height. 
Among other awards, Rosy Morn received one of the only two Awards of Merit 
given by the Maryland Test Gardens in 1941. The only other one to receive this 
Award of Merit was Moneeta of Stockton’s. This is a real honest to goodness glad 
that will make a good commercial. In fact some bulbs were sold last year to com- 
mercial growers, who liked it very much. 
Rosy Morn is a sure fire commerciaJ that you will eventually grow. The 
sooner you get a start the more you will make out of it.

General List 
American Commander **** (ey) se 
(Mid-season) Color is 
blood red or darker. Opens 6-7 nice plain petaled blooms on a long head of about 
20 buds. Very tall and strong and straight stems. Its unusual vigor and uniformity 
and ability to open well in water when cut tight are valuable features. A large com- 
mercial grower says this brings more money in the cut flower market than any other 
variety. I think this probably is the best red of its shade and should displace Com- 
mander Koehl which is temperamental in habits. 
%&%&* (FISCHER) (Large Dec) (Early mid-season) Ruffled 
Arethusa buff. The color is sometimes a little muddy but the 
ae are tall and strong and it opens several large blooms. Makes a really imposing 
spike. 
Ariadne kKkwK* (MircH) (Large Dec) (Mid-season) White tinted 
pink with large crimson blotch. Opens 6-8 well placed 
blooms on a long flower head. Tall straight plant. One of the very finest varieties 
of its color. Rather a shy propagator with me. 
Avalon wk *&Y2 (MarsHatt) (Med. Dec) (Mid-season) Beautiful 
bright rosy pink with large cream throat. Beautiful 
color that appeals to everyone. 8-10 or more medium size nicely ruffled blooms open 
on a long head. Tall strong grower, nice form and substance. Opens well in water. 
A very nice variety that should make a good commercial when stock is available. 
Produces lots of large bulblets that germinate well. See cut on inside front cover. 
4 wk*&*wY. (Pr) (Large Dec) (Early mid-season) Medium 
Ave Maria blue with darker blotch, and often flakes darker. 
One of the old standard blues and still one of the best. Opens 8 at a time. You may 
find an occasional rogue in my stock. 
Barbara New variety. See page 21. 
Barcelona *** (Ket), (Large Dec) (Mid-season) Cream shad- 
__ Ing to yellow in the throat. Probably more creamy 
than other creams. 8 large slightly ruffled blooms open on a very tall strong growing 
plant. Different from other creams and well worth trying. 

“Permit me to say that ! had wonderful results with your gladiolus bulbs last year. 
BEACON was the best of all. —Rosa Amelia Lopez, Santiago, R. D
