MOUNTAIN GEM (Requa) (EM) The first introduction of Mrs. Re- 
qua of Wendell, Idaho, this is a fine new scarlet red with florets 
often having a light picotee edging. Six or seven large round 
florets open on a tall straight spike. About the same shade of 
red as Algonquin, I prefer Mountain Gem for cutting on account 
of its floret shape and better attachment. A good bloomer from 
all sizes including bulblets. 
Bulbs, any size, $1.25 each, bulblets 2—.25, 10—31.00 
MT. INDEX (Miller-Kaylor) (E) Another western glad that is grad- 
ually finding its way to other gladiolus centers purely on its 
merit. It-is our best white for early cutting, but the one feature 
that sets Mt. Index apart from all other whites is its real yellow 
throat. Except for a lack of ruffling it might be called a glor- 
ified Mary Elizabeth with perfect growing habits. 7-8 large 
florets open on tall straight spikes; a fine propagator and 
germinator. Try Mt. Index—you won’t be disappointed. 
L .25c, M .15¢, S .10, Bits 10—.25, 100—$2.00, 500—$8.00 
MYRNA (Pruitt) (E) Frilled creamy white that can be fine but is 
rather erratic in performance. Quite an early bloomer, seems 
to do better when bulbs are planted rather early. Still a frequent 
show winner, but not consistent enough to be a good cut flower. 
L .10, M .06, Bulblets 100—.25 
MYRNA FAY (Lines) (VE) The first introduction of another Idaho 
hybridizer, Rev. N. H. Lines of Meridian, Myrna Fay is an 
attractive medium lavender, sometimes flecked deeper. An 
ideal early cut flower with 7-9 medium sized florets open on tall 
straight 20-bud spikes, it has also done a nice bit of winning 
at the shows in its first year of introduction. Blooming nearly 
as early as June Day, these two will make a grand pair for 
early cutting. Fine bloomer from all sizes, even bulblets making 
salable flowers. A very good propagator, 100% germinator. 
If you grow for the early market or for exhibition you should 
have Myrna Fay. 
L $4.00, M $3.00, S $2.00 (One bulb and 10 bits $5.00)

MYSTERY (Stimson-Perry Lee) (M) We think Mystery is one of the 
; best recent glads from Canada altho we haven’t grown much 
of it as yet. A tall strong growing pink with small deeper blotch. 
M $1.00, S .60, Bulblets 2—.25, 10—$1.00 
NORMANDIE (Miller-Kaylor) (M) We were very much impressed 
with this new light pink last summer. Apparently near the 
color of Lady Luck, possibly a little pinker, the color is attract- 
ive and it made some very fine spikes even from small and 
bulblets. A seedling of Coryphee, Normandie showed no erooking 
and the color was even more beautiful than in the older variety. 
L $1.00, M .75, S .50 
OGARITA (H. Willson) (L) A winner at the shows it should be 
planted quite early, as it is a late bloomer. Salmon with lighter 
throat, opening many florets at once. Too coarse for florist 
use, it is really huge. ie
