SALMAN’S GLORY (Salman) 77 *** + tft 
Class 500. In Holland they call it creamy 
white. We call it cream with a promi- 
nent red blotch on yellow base. Claims 
are made that florets can reach 10 inches 
diameter. Our bloom from small and 
bulblets incline us to believe 9 inches will 
be about right. 6to7 open. A beautiful 
novelty of huge size, extremely early. No 
faults discovered in our plantings. Supply 
limited. 
Each L $2.50 M $2.00 Bits .50. 
YELLOW—10 Series 
CHAGRIN (Evans) 82 ***+ ff} 1945 intro- 
duction. Soft, clear, lively primrose yel- 
low with red markings in throat. The 
heavy creases and tapering points of the 
petals add greatly to its beauty. Spikes 
are what we would call on the short side 
but F. E. Hubler, former supervisor of 
judges, Amer. Glad. Soc., who has grown 
a few for appraisal for several years, says 
it is tall enough. 
For us it was Sec. and Champion Seedling, 
W. Va., 41 and ist 3 spike Cleveland 
(Ohio) '43. At this same show J.S. Colbert, 
prominent Ohio amateur, also having a 
few for testing won Sec. and Seedling 
Champion. A week before he entered a 
spike at Chagrin Falls (Ohio) winning as 
Reserve Champion of the show. We won 
with it in the open giant yellow class 
Chagrin Falls, ’44, over good spikes of 
Sir Galahad.

CUT UP (Wilson) 92 — f{ Class 312. Clear, 
deep yellow. Medium small florets, beau- 
tifully ruffled, fluted and _ laciniated. 
Placement wide and airy. Stem a bit too 
heavy for perfect proportion. Very dec- 
orative. Supply limited. 
Each L .30 M .20S .10 Blts (100, $2.00). 
SOLID (Both) 80 * — +ff{ Class 412. Pure, 
deep, glistening yellow with florets a bit 
ruffed and fluted. Lively color. Makes | 
long, stretchy, step-ladder type spikes. 
Attachment is perfect and the buds sep- 
arate nicely in early stage of bloom. We 
think it has excellent commercial pros- 
pects. 
Each L $5.00 M $4.00 Blts each $1.00, 
obtainable with large bulb purchases. 
Limit 3 per large bulb. 
SPOTLIGHT (Palmer) 75 * + ff. Do not 
confuse with another variety, red, called 
STOPLIGHT. Clear, medium-deep 
golden yellow with a small feathered 
blotch of scarlet. Large blooms, about 
7-8 open and about 18 total buds. .Award 
of Merit by Mass. Hort. Soc. The color 
is extremely attractive and the plant is 
strong and vigorous, producing plenty of 
large bulblets that grow unusually well 
and often bloom. (Wy 
THE GLADIOLUS FANCIER’S 

Now rated 8th best glad, all colors, 
C. G. S. symposium. We would include 
it in the “best 25,’ mainly because of its 
ability to open well when cut in tight bud.

tacularly blotched purple overlaid cerise

BOBBY DAZZLER (Both) 80 **+ if 
Surely the best commercial orange we know. 
Brilliantly clear and velvety red orange 
with deeper throat blotch. Beautifully 
ruffled. But for Jeanie and Coutts’ Orchid 
this variety would be just about the sole 
contender for the most beautiful glad in- 
troduced in the last 5 years. On account of 
the greater intensity of color in this one 
probably it will receive the most acclaim. 
Florets have substance, are 54-61% 
inches dia., 5-7 open and are not crowded 
on the stem.

“Bobby Dazzler, from bulblets, was wonderful! A living 
spire of red orange flame.” M. A. E., Appleton, Minn. 
DAZZLER (Both) 80 ** + +ttt Exh. only. 
The greatest dazzler for color we have 
seen. We never thought we could ever 
see a glad of scarlet orange that could 
match Pfitzer’s Triumph. But this is 
vivid dazzling scarlet orange with darker 
blotch. Slightly ruffled. 514 inch florets, 
9-10 open, 22 and more buds. Full double 
row Exh. type placement. Flower fades in 
the sun so it is not a commercial type. 
But what a “humdinger” for the show 
bench or home use if blooms are opened 
indoors! A spike selected from our com- 
mercial display at Ohio, ’38, not entered 
in competition, was unanimously chosen 
by the judges as Grand Champion Bloom 
of the Show, winning the American Home 
Achievement Medal and the N. E.G. S. 
Purple Rosette. .
