BUTTERSCOTGE 
L. R. LANGWORTHY & BUTTERSCOTCH 

A 1948 GLADLAND ACRES 
INTRODUCTION 
Originated by L. R. Langworthy 
of Van Nuys, Calif. 

-A warm, bright pastel in a new shade— 
Indian Yellow overlaid with Chinese Coral 
on petal margins and in throat. Class 530. 

The iype is formal. 18-20 buds; height in 
field 60 to 63 inches; flowerhead 28-30 
inches; floret 6-7 inches. Opens 8 to 10; 
withstands heat better than average. Mid- 
season blooms with Picardy on a little ear- 
lier.” In a letter written July 17th, Mr. Lang- 
worthy says: “Just cut some spikes this morn- 
ing for a Van Nuys florist—these were grown 
from bulblets.” 

In the Southern California Glad Society 
show this June in Pasadena Butterscotch 
won the Champion Seedling award, and in 
so doing took the N. E..G. S: dnd $2.C: G.S; 
special ribbons and the Dr. Evans Perpetual 
Trophy. Butterscotch also won the medal of 
Sunset Magazine for best California seed- 
ling. 
The photograph of Butterscotch as caught by the photographer does not do jus- 
tice to the flower, and unfortunately we have misplaced the print of Butterscotch that 
we intended to use in illustration. 

After the show we drove out to Van Nuys to the glad field of Mr. Langworthy. A 
block of 10,000 of Butterscotch was something to rave about, although he had kept the 
block cut clean until show date to supply florist trade who were paying a premium for 
this variety. A strong, vigorous grower, true formal in type, with fine placement and 
attachment, it was not surprising that these traits, combined with its appealing color 
made it a florist favorite. 
The stock was adequate to permit low introductory prices. 
Large, each $1.25 — per 10 — $10.00 
Medium, each $1.00 — per 10 — $8.00 
Bulblets, 10 for $1.25 — 100 for $10
