GLADIOLUS WINTER GLOW 
The second of an entirely new strain of winter 
flowering Gladiolus originated in this Nursery. 
Stands several degrees more frost and the flower 
stems are daintier and more graceful than the 
large flowered hybrids. Corms planted in Septem- 
ber in Santa Barbara bloom early in December 
about two weeks ahead of our Winter Fairy. Suc- 
cessive plantings will furnish flowers throughout 
February. Must be grown COOL under glass. 
Winter Glow has open flowers about 4 inches 
across. The three upper petals are a deep salmon 
pink with a darker stripe in the center. ‘The three 
lower petals are lemon yellow, the center one tip- 
ped with salmon pink. The throat has deep salmon 
pink lines. Strong stem three to four feet long 
bearing 3 to 5 flowers open at once. A little bolder 
in color than Winter Fairy. 
$85.00 per 1000 
HABRANTHUS ROBUSTUS 
Large bright pink flowers in late summer on 6 to 
10 inch stems. Foliage during winter and spring. 
The flowers are large enough and stems long 
enough to be very useful for cutting. Its adapta- 
bility to culture in pots, rock gardens and borders 
makes it a very useful member of a well known 
group. 
$50.00 per 1000 . 
HABRANTHUS BRACHYANDRUS 
Very similar to robustus (see above) but deeper 
pink and larger flowers on longer stems. Superior 
in every way. Supply limited. 
$10.00 per 100 
HAEMANTHUS COCCINEUS 
“Blood flower.” It has two bright green leaves 
lying flat on the ground, growing in the winter. 
The single bright red flower appears in the fall be- 
fore the leaves. It is a large cluster or umbel 2 to 
4 inches across composed of many small flowers 
closely placed. 
$1.00 each. Supply limited. 
IXIA BLOEM ERF 
Recently introduced hybrid from S. Africa, quite 
different from other ixias. Blooms in late spring. 
Wiry stem 4 to 5 feet tall with 20 to 40 open 
flowers in a raceme at the top with several smaller
