MRS. RICHARD McGOVERN 
(70 days) 1940... Very fine coloring in scarlet 
with neat blotch. Has never failed to win the blue 
ribbon for us when grown from large bulbs and 
the bulbs are the healthiest, cleanest and finest 
type we have ever seen. Excellent propagator. 
Formal type. Has won a flock of ribbons but since 
the advent of Gracie Allen we have slowed down 
on its production, but it is still a good glad to grow 
and show. Even in 1944 first and sec. champion 
for a customer at W. Va. No. 3, .50; No. 4, .30;
