LEONA (462) (Pruitt) (Late) One of the best 
deep rose reds on the market; tall, straight, and 
wiry stemmed—qualities which make it a good 
cutter. Especially adept for late cutting. We 
had some nice ones just before frost. (L 3-.25; 
10-.70) (M 10-.40) (S 10-.25) Blbts. .20 Pkg. 
LIBERATOR (436) (Baerman) (Midseason) One 
of the most richly colored and most stylishly 
formed scarlets. The blooms are as precisely 
formed as if they were finely moulded and 
shaped. However, in wet weather the color 
peels. (M 10-.40) (S 10-.25) Blbts. .20 Pkg. 
MARGARET BEATON (401) (Twomey) (Mid- 
season) A rich milky white with a tiny spark 
of vermillion deep in the throat. Reminds one 
of those beautiful white phlox with a pink eye. 
Spikes are tall and free from crooking. Takes 
its place in the gladiolus hall of fame. (L 3-.25; 
10-.70) (M 10-.40) (S 10-.25) Blbts. .20 Pkg. 
MARGARET F UL TON (332) (Ogrodnichek) 
(Early) Recommended as one of the best all- 
around glads. Rich salmon cutflower of dis- 
tinctive clean-cut form. A good old standby 
and the most reliable of all varieties. (L 10-.65) 
(M 10-.35) (S 10-.25) Blbts. .20 Pkg. 
MEMORY OF HINDENBURG (550)  (Pfitzer) 
(Midseason) A_ distinctly worthwhile variety 
and one we have used a lot for cutting. Beau- 
tiful color and fine tall grower. Rather loosely 
attached. (M 10-.40) (S 10-.25) Blbts. .20 Pkg. 
MILFORD (476) (Rides) (Midseason) The tallest 
and huskiest of all the blues but more or less 
at the bottom of the scale for color. Very large 
light violet with deeper throat markings. Some- 
times not very attractively colored on reverse 
side of petals. To illustrate how finicky glads 
are sometimes, a planting of Milford on nice 
black loam didn’t show up well, while other 
varieties next to it were excellent, and then a 
later planting on clay loam was wonderful! The 
clay supplied some element this variety needed 
that was lacking in the black loam. (L 3-.25; 
10-.70) (M 10-.40) (S 10-.25) Blbts. .20 Pkg. 
MISS VERMONT (566) (Hatch) (Early Midseason) 
A delicate ruffled pale lavender that doesn’t 
seem to be quite vigorous enough—at least in 
our experience. Makes poor bulbs. (L 1-$1.50) 
(M 1-$1.00) (S 1-.50) Blbts. 2-.25; 10-$1.00. 
MISS WISCONSIN (460) (Krueger) (Midseason) 
A newcomer in the rose class that is winning 
its way. A medium rose that opens about 6 
54einch florets on tall spikes. An excellent show 
variety but a slow propagator. L 1-.80; 10- 
$6.00) Blbts. 10-.80; 100-$6.40. 
MISTY DAWN (580) (Rich) (Midseason) Ap- 
propriately named since the brilliant throat 
blotch remainds one of the sun rising through 
the mists of a foggy morning. The large soft 
gray smoky florets are well arranged on sub- 
stantial spike. A leading smoky and one that 
has done well for us. (L 3-.25; 10-.70) (M 10- 
.40) (S 10-.25) Blbts. .20 Pkg. 
MRS. MARK’S MEMORY (570) (Pfitzer) (Mid- 
season) This tall exhibition sized deep rose or 
medium purple has done well for us. Distinc- 
tively colored. Vigorous. (L 3-.25; 10-.70) (M 
10-.40) (S 10-.25) Blbts. .20 Pkg. 
“IT want some Gratitude and would like some 
information on the 3 spike ruffled white seed- 
ling (614-41 illustrated inside back cover) you 
had at Ames, Iowa. I thought that was tops and 
hope to grow it. I have some of your introduc- 
tions and Gleam is the best glad I have.’’—M.
