KAYLOR NURSERIES, LAKEWOOD, WASH. 3 

Progress in “44 
Never before in our lives were our noses 
rubbed so hard by the grindstone of hard 
work as in 1944. Lack of help, and the 
long hours, did not, however, put an end to 
the experiment work with new varieties 
and new methods. The results will be found 
by a careful reading of this catalog. Many 
new Glads, Perennials and Shrubs have been 
added to our lists for your garden pleasure. 
Descriptions of varieties were written in 
the nursery and are based on performance 
in our dry-farmed soil. No irrigation used, 
and plants and bulbs are grown with a min- 
imum of fertilizer so as to produce a sturdy, 
tough specimen that can stand some hard 
knocks. “Hot Air” adjectives have been 
eliminated and if you do not find our stock 
to be as described, send it back and get your 
money. That’s our only guarantee—but it 
is good.

BUSINESS TERMS 
Read Before Ordering 
All orders to go C. O. D. must be ac- 
companied by an advance payment of 50c. 
Remit by money order, draft or check. 
If currency and stamps are sent, they travel 
at customer’s risk. Sometimes such remit- 
tances are lost in the mails. 
We guarantee our stock to be as repre- 
sented, but as many elements beyond our 
control enter into the production of crops, 
our responsibility ends when we have de- 
livered shipments to transportation com- 
panies. If you are not satisfied when you 
receive the goods, send them back and get 
your money. 
If you prefer to have your order come 
transportation charges collect, tell us and 
we will put in more than enough stock to 
pay such charges. Lots of times we can 
send a much larger plant on charges collect 
orders than on those that are prepaid. 
On all orders for $1.50 or less, add 25c 
for sales tax, postage and packing. 
Prices in this catalog good until July 1, 
1945. They are automatically cancelled on 
that date. 
New Glads 
Several years have passed since we intro- 
duced a new Glad. The perfect Glad is 
somewhere in the future, but the new ones 
we introduce this year are steps along the 
way. They have individuality and will add 
to your garden pleasure. 
For years we have been breeding for 
disease resistance, strong growing qualities, 
and colors that are out of the ordinary run 
of mill. During the years these new ones 
have been under test, not only in our own 
gardens, but also at several points in the 
East, they have made a place for them- 
selves. Fair stocks have been built up so 
they can be sold at moderate prices. 
Danny Danton 
“If it only had a longer stem!” Sure 
we have heard this many times from folks 
who have grown Leschi. Been trying to do 
something about it, too, and here is one of 
the results. Danny Danton has a longer 
stem, a larger flower and about the same 
deep ruby color with the black velvet patch 
in the throat. Not our ideal of a black red, 
but an improvement so many folks have 
admired that here it is at $1.00 per bulb. 
Dora Dean 
An old song goes: “Dora Dean is the 
hottest girl I’ve ever seen.” That’s it—an 
orange-red, or red-orange color that attracts 
interest at once. Reports from Eastern 
growers indicate it holds its color in hot 
sunlight. Sixty inches tall, a 30 inch flower 
head, 20 buds, up to eight 7x5 inch florets 
open in the field. A deeper colored feather 
in the throat adds to its beauty. L—1-$3.00, 
M—1-$2.25, S—1-$1.75. 
Eunice Ewing 
If you admire contrast here is one you 
will like. Tall grower, medium sized florets 
with up to ten open. Outer two-thirds of 
petals are deep purple and inner third 
glistening snow white. An entirely new 
combination of coloring that is both pleas- 
ing and attention-getting. L—1-$3.00, M— 
1-$2.25, S—1-$1.75. 
Gayly Clad 
Will show in the deep salmon class, but 
that does not tell its color story. Tunolia, 
the purest white glad we grow, was the 
seed parent. Like its mother, Gayly Clad 
is a tall, strong grower, but there is not a 
trace of white in its deep pink coloring. 
Rather the color carries a trace of orange- 
pink overlay that adds brilliance. Hard to 
describe because unique. Plant deep w'th 
plenty of feeding room to prevent crooks. 
L—1-$3.00, M—1-$2.25, S—1-$1.75.
