ROYAL GARNETT, Bob Haring, Class 554, 80 days - one of two 
top size class black reds and is like a beautiful black Picardy 
in floret size and spike except that florets are bigger. Color 
black red with some fire in throat. Better than Rewi Fallu.

BB 5-1.00 with 20% off for 10. 
BLACK PANTHER, Lins, Class 554, 53 in. florets, 16 buds. A 
big pointed floret black that looked fine the first two years, 
and has color between Rewi Fallu and Oeganda. Introduced in 
1944. We never had any black red in 53 inches and over class 
and now we have three. One over one up the spike. Good glad.

DANNY DANTON, class 554 by Kaylor - is big fine black by a 
famous hybridizer who has specialized in blacks for years. € 
inch florets - open 5 up - don't know how many - good grower - 
much better than Leschi. Looks good to me. PRICE L. or M. 
2.00. 
LIGHT ROSE 
CANDY SPLASH, by J. R. Almey - my 1943 introduction - came 
a clear white in '43 with light rose colored edges and not 
splashed. Class 460 - 75 days - early. An occasional spike 
had the pronounced splashes in 1945, but 22 out of 25 came 
clear - and classify it as light rose color. It is exquisite- 
ly beautiful and am proud I had a part in its introduction. 
It won at West Virginia, Eastern New York, Empire State, 
Illinois, and Ohio State, etc, and won single and 3% spike at 
Midwest in recent introduction and open classes, and was Grand 
Champion Basket at Midwest - mixed with some deep rose, it made 
a basket that was a knock-out in '43. Was runner up to fine 14 
open Elanora at Iowa State show in Waterloo. Won at several 
shows in 1945. A very dependable performer - every bulb throws 
a fine spike - no misplaced florets - well proportioned spike - 
opens to 10 - tall growing and very satisfactory glad. PRICE 
L. 1.25 M. 1.00 S. 60¢. 
SO BIG, by Mrs. George Kinyon - Class 460, a big 5% inch 
floret, grand self light rose that is one of my special fav- 
orites. Opens to 6 - nice spike - good height - good perform- 
ance. None of these best light rose colored glads cost much 
except Candy Splash and that one is well worth the price. 
PRICE L. 3-30¢. 
FRANCES IRWIN, by George Wilson, a great favorite of mine 
and one I think has a fine future. Opens 7 - 5 inch florets, 
makes fine spike and color is beautiful. A regular winner. In 
fact almost every glad we list is a regular winner. If it can't 
win we don't list it. Both Frances Irwin and Candy Splash will 
make fine commercials. PRICE L. 15¢ M. 10¢. 
MAGNOLIA, by Palmer, Class 460 - is right up there in pinks - 
fine color - good spikes - opens 7 ~- 4% inch florets - wins 
very often. Splendid commercial and fine glad. PRICE L. 5-50 
M. 5-40. 1945 blooms simply exquisite. 
BALLAD, 460 class, by Palmer - another very fine glad by the 
great Canadian that has been somewhat overlooked. It is about 
44 inch florets and simply beautiful in that size - somewhat 
ruffled - opens about 6-7 - and not only very fine but low in 
price. Good straight spikes and good grower. PRICE L. do¢ 
M. 25¢ S. 2-30¢. 
MERRY WIDOW, class 460, by Evans, has been in best list for 
years and one of my special favorites. Does not open enough 
is only fault - but has 5s inch florets of great beauty of 
shape and color and looks like a fine parent. I am closing it 
out to make way for the coming new ones. PRICE L. 25¢ M. 20¢ 
S. 2-30¢. 
PURPLE 
PURPLE SUPREME, Wilson, Class 470 - the king of the purples -

makes a grand purple and was runner up for grand champ.at more 
than one show. Florets about 5 inches. PRICE L. 50¢ M. 40¢

MRS. MARKS MEMORY, class 570, by Pfitzer - is grand deep red 
purple self with 6 inch florets and opens to 8. Some spikes 
have floppy florets but many are good and stiff - and make fine 
show spikes. When 7 are open is a great show. Price now down

ELANORA - class 470, by Errey, is grand glad for most open

srand champ at Iowa a couple of years back. Color a touch 
muddy but not always and when you get a good one it is really 
something fine. PRICE S. 15¢. 

EUNICE EWING by Floyd Kaylor - A marvelous one over one flo- 
ret placement on tall stretchy spike with flowers a deep blue 
purple with white center. Like Oberbayern except color is 
purple instead of blue. A marvelous and striking color com- 
bination and while I have had 6 open - it is a descendent of 
Red Lory and opens a great many - just how many I don't know - 
but more than six. Size is 470 class - about 4% inches. 
PRICK L. 2.00. 
PARNASSUS, class 470, by Ristow - is good purple, just this 
year being squeezed out of list of best in color because others 
appear better but this is on border line so am selling bulbs. 
PRICE M. 15¢ 5S. 2-20¢. 
VULCAN, class 570, by Stevens, - was better than any of them 
this last year and a big fine spike of good self purple on blue 
side that was a honey. Florets 5s inches - opens 6 - splendid, 
tall plant and straight. PRICE L. 35¢ M. 25¢ S. 2-2d¢. 
SMOKIES 
HIGH FINANCE, Wilson, Class 580 - in my opinion the best by 
far of the lighter colored smokeys. Grand coral salmon smokey 
with light cream center - some ruffling and opens 8-9, big 
pointed florets - 53 to 6 inches. Many call it the most beau- 
tiful of all glads. Regular winner and a grand smokey. Splen- 
did commercial. PRICE L. 25¢ M. 2-40¢ S. 3-30c BB. 100-#2.50. 
R. B., by Palmer, Class 580, 90 days. Another brownish 
smokey - lighter than Bagdad and more variable in color - was 
esrand in '44 and '45 and florets big. Can grow 7" in florets 
maybe larger. Opens 6-7 and has won for largest floret. 
Florists crazy about it. PRICE L. 2-30¢ M. 3-30¢. 

GREY DAWN, class 480 or 490, by Errey I think - is extremely 
beautiful Jaina with streaks of color or stripes of color a 
beautiful shade of grey not found in any other glad. A great 
beauty and exciting glad to grow and wait for it to open up. 
Has not made the shows as yet but destined to be very popular 
and in 490 class nothing can touch it. Recommend highly. 
PRICE L. 1.50 M. 1.00 S. 75¢. 
ROMANY, by F. E. Youmans, a grand 480 class smokey - a 
strawberry smokey with blue and red blotch. When fully open is
