MYRNA FAY 
New, rich orchid lavender that will open 7-9 blooms. Vigorous grower that is 
already winning its share of ribbons. Appears to have a bright future. 
ORIENTAL PEARL 
Gigantic pearly white which was one of our real finds last season. We grew 
it with eight-inch florets and did not see a crooked spike. Unlike many giant 
glads the florets of Oriental] Pearl are strongly attached to the spike, making it 
a good shipper despite its great size. Friend Harvey won a division championship 
with it at Boston in 1946. We unhesitatingly stake our reputation on this one. 
PARADISE 
Bright, veined pink with an orange cast. An especially tall and vigorous 
grower that opens many blooms at once. A vase of a dozen spikes is something 
that is worth looking at. 
PEGGY LOU 
Pink with bluish cast. A tall, rugged grower that is very much like Picardy, 
only it is a trifle darker. 
PHYLLIS McQUISTON 
Warn, brilliant pure pink on a rugged spike. Fine color and a very easy 
erower. Occasionally the blooms are somewhat poorly faced on the spikes. 
PICARDY 
Best known glad in the world. Grown by the millions in Florida in winter. 
Salmon pink shading to a pale rose throat. For some reason it is becoming: in- 
creasingly difficult to grow, but we have propagated our young stock from field 
selected plants and experienced no difficulty last season in growing spikes of ex- 
hibition quality. 
PURPLE BEAUTY 
Deep, clear purple with large, round blooms on a compact flower head. A 
pleasing shade of purple that is just a trifle darker than King Lear. 
PURPLE SUPREME 
One of the tallest purples and one of the very best. The floret placement is 
ideal and the spike never crooks. Increases rapidly and is rated as the leading 
purple. 
R. B. 
A giant, smoky bronze which always attracts a lot of attention in the fields 
and at the shows where it is a consistent winner. Not beautiful, in our opinion, 
but big and showy and very much worth while as a novelty. 
ROSA VAN LIMA 
Bright rose pink with white throat. Same shade as Phyllis McQuiston but 
its white throat is an added feature. Very straight grower of more than average 
height. We rate it as one of the best pink commercials. 
RUBY RED 
The name accurately describes this glad. A distinctive and beautiful shade.
