up to 10 large blooms on a tall plant, but some-

LADY JANE (406) Lake ‘41 (85)—We cannot praise 
this wonderful glad too much. Wish you could have 
seen the nice spikes we cut from No. 5 bulbs last 
year. It can be called a cream with yellow lip 
petals or a light yellow. We do not know of any 
newer, more expensive glad that can take it’s 
place. Friends with large florist trade report that 
its handling and keeping qualities are of the best. 
A must.

cream white sport of Picardy tops any popularity 
list including the Canadian Symposium, Cut in 
tight bud, it opens beautifully. Saw two baskets 
of Florida raised bloom in Chicago last week 
(Jan. 17). They were the highest quality cut 
flowers I have seen come out of Florida. No other 
variety has won as many prizes at the shows in 
the same length of time. Make this the No. 1 
variety on your list. 
L .25 M 2/.25 S 3/.25 Bits 10/.20

MISS BLOOMINGTON (310) Kundred ‘29 (70)—This 
variety, an early clear yellow, will be discarded

that they can include either of these two better 
yellows.
