MRS. GEORGE KINYON is ¢ true lover 
of the wonders 
of nature and is not satisfied to watch what 
others have helped nature create. 

Before hybridizing of Gladiolus had become 
commonplace, Mrs. Kinyon, through careful 
study and painstaking labor succeeded in breed- 
ing unusual, new Gladiolus. This work has been 
continued for nearly twenty years and has cre- 
ated a beautiful and vigorous strain of 
Gladiolus. 

JEAN HOXIE, (Kinyon — 1942 — Exhibition Orange) was named in honor of one of 
Mrs. Kinyon’s good friends. It is a beautiful clear orange-salmon with 
deep orange blotch in lower petal. The blooms are always perfectly placed on a strong 
straight spike. We regret not having an illustration of this new variety. 
WENONAH, (Kinyon — 1940 — Exhibition Salmon-Pink) A recent introduction which 
has won a place as a top notch Gladiolus. It is vigorous, prolific and will 
open ten to twelve slightly recurved florets on a tall straight spike. It has won the Ameri- 
can Home Achievement, Michigan Hort. and M. G. S. seedling medals. 
REFLECTION, (Kinyon — 1938 — Exhibition Lavender) Earlier than Minuet, this variety 
is a beautiful light shade of lavender and should be grown by all who 
like pastel colors in Gladiolus. Named Reflection because several spikes placed together 
seem to reflect and intensify in color. 
OTHER KINYON ORIGINATIONS possess many points of merit. Most of them 
are listed in our regular listing. We want to 
call them to your attention, all are recommended.
