MARGARET WOOD (Marshall)—An outstanding new commercial color, from the 
originator of ORANGE GOLD, AVALON and SENSATION. This is the deep 
wine colored glad that attracted so much attention at Simcoe, Canada; Ann Ar- 
bor, Mich., and at Cleveland, O. It is named in honor of the show queen at the 
Simcoe show. Not just another glad, but virtually a new color in the commercial 
field. A reliable grower tells us that in his area, the demand for this beautiful 
shade is so great that it helps sell his standard varieties and this demand should 
be repeated elsewhere. Florets are of giant size, up to seven inches, well attached, 
but not always well placed, on good strong stems that do not crook. It blooms 
in early mid-season. Plant is of good average height, healthy in foliage and bulb, 
good propagator of small bulblets which make sturdy growth. It will open to the 
tip when cut tight, color does not fade when shipped, nor do the florets lose much 
in size.

$15.00 (see wholesale list).

has immense 642-inch florets and identical with R. B. in habit of growth. Imag- 
ine a beautiful shade of misty lavender for the show bench and you will not won- 
der at this winning champion seedling in keen competition at the Calgary 1946 
2nd show).

part of Minuet. Being a self color it appears darker than Minuet as Minuet shades 
lighter to the throat, 6 inches and over in size, with 6-7 open. 50 inches and up 
in height. Good propagator. Dr. Scheer considers this the last word in lavenders. 
Priced: Medium bulbs only, $15.00 each. 
FERSONALITY (Butt) (Sdlg. 40463 - Picardy X Flagship)—Light rose pink, a self 
color. Very large, well attached florets of which 8 or more will open at once. 
Plants are very tall, spikes always straight and the floret arrangement such that 
you get almost all perfect spikes. 16-18 buds. Bulbs are clean and healthy and 
it is a good propagator. For exhibition and commercial use a knockout. Highly 
rated in the C.G.C. test garden in 1946. Prof. Buckley of Ottawa states it was 
the best glad in his whole collection and that each spike was good enough to win 
a championship anywhere. He predicts a great future for it.

rose pink. Long straight flower spikes with many perfectly placed blooms open 
at one time. Flowers open to the tip even when cut in bud. A lovely variety
