FROM W. A. BEATON 
4 (430) (Seedling BH 5-42) (Late mid-season) Grenadine pink or 
Palisades orange salmon. Not an unusual color but good. Blooms up to 514”, 
Somewhat ruffled and fluted. What sets this variety apart is its marvelous growth of 5 ft. 
or more and its ability to open up to 12 in the hottest sun and never wilt or burn when 
most everything else in the garden looks like a rag. Stem is slender and straight. Has about 
18 total buds. A Connecticut grower reports it growing 67” tall, with a 2914” flower 
head. Opens well from tight buds. It should make a fine show variety and be great for cut 
flowers. With its long slender stems and many open it will be grand for large baskets. In 
my garden it was head and shoulders above most everything else. 
Due to a fair stock to start with I am putting the price down to where you can’t afford 
to pass it up. Any size bulb $3.00 each. 1 large bulb and 10 bulblets for $5.00. Grower’s Special: 
4 large, 4 medium, 4 small and 30 bulblets for $30.00. 
FROM BIRCHVILLE GARDENS 
(Mito) (470) (Mid-season) Beautiful medium 
Dorothy Armstrong shade of purple with no markings. Grows 55-60” 
tall with 20 buds on a long flower head with 8 414 inch blooms open at a time. Very fine 
grower and propagator. At the Connecticut and New York shows it won five ribbons. I 
saw it at the New York show where it made a real hit with everyone. Think it will make a 
fine cut flower purple in a shade that everyone likes. 
Prices are large $3.00, medium $2.00; small $1.00 and bulblets 10 for $3.00.

(Originator’s Descriptions) 
Two New Miniatures 
We are proud to present two distinctly new glads in Bo-Peep and Twinkles. These are 
small flowered miniatures, with heavily ruffled florets of attractive form and color. 
It is not an overstatement to say that a basket of these miniatures at the great show 
in Binghamton, N. Y., was the centre of attraction and literally “‘stole the show.”’ Everyone 
who saw them expressed a desire to purchase bulbs, and on every side you could hear people 
saying that for the first time they had found some small flowering varieties which they 
really liked and which were beautiful. 
We are indeed proud to make bulbs of two of these really different varieties available 
to you. Stocks of bulbs in both varieties are not large and we sincerely recommend that, 
if you are interested, you order early. 
First orders will receive the largest bulbs. But if we have to send smaller sizes, please 
remember that they bloom early and you will get good bloom. Both are healthy growers 
and increase well. 
Bo-Pee (Sdlg. 40041) (Crinklette x Mibloom) Buff pink with a yellowish throat 
DO-rcep faintly dusted red. Very early, deeply ruffled and of heavy substance. 
Grows to a height of about 40” with 17-18” flower heads that carry 16-17 buds of which 
5-6 open at once informally arranged. Florets are 3’’ wide. Most attractive in form and 
color and an ideal glad for florists’ use. 
Bulbs any size $5.00 each. 
* (Sdlg. 40371) (Harlekin x Crinklette) Dark orange pink on the outer 
Twinkles petals with a deep yellow centre on which are reddish lines. A very 
attractive color. Early, deeply ruffled and of heavy substance. Averages 36-38 inches in 
height with 16-18” flower heads. 17-18 buds of which 5-7 florets open at once: usually but 
not always well arranged. A fine garden variety as it is a sturdy grower and large bulbs 
give many spikes. 
(To me this is more of a red. A very fine one.—E.G.) 
This variety has created a sensation whenever it has been shown, and visitors to our 
gardens pick it out as their favorite. Both this variety and Bo-Peep are something really 
different, and from them are likely to emanate some really fine miniatures. 
pe will be some sister seedlings of Twinkles to introduce in future years when stocks 
permit. 
Bulbs any size $5.00 each.
