ACE IIR 
A 1948 GLADLAND ACRES INTRODUCTION 
Originated by Dr. Chas. M. Evans — Los Angeles, Calif. 
Color is distinctive—a cool, pale peach (Class 430) self color except for a faint 
throat line. Seedling of Magna Blanca X Seedling DO7. Informal type, triangular flo- 
rets; 18-20 buds; flowerhead 26-28 inches; field height 64 inches. Floret size as given 
by Dr. Evans, 4% inches — however in our test garden the lower florets measured 6” 
from large bulb. Blooms mid-season about 6 days ahead of Leading Lady. Opens 5 to 
6 with 4 to 5 buds in color. 
We were enthusiastic when we saw this seedling in the $.C:G.S. Pasadena Show in 
June. We were really excited when we saw it in Dr. Evans’ garden the following day, 
and also when we saw it in the field both grown from bulb stock and bulblets. The 
growth is strong and vigorous, foliage heavy and deep 
iin color. Spikes tall and willowy and straight. Growth 
was not as tall in our test garden but with us it stood 6 
inches taller than Leading Lady. 
April was runner-up for Grand Champion seed- 
ling spike at the Southern California Glad Society 
show this summer. Had the show been held a few 
hours earlier it could easily have won. Two wilting 
lower florets were a handicap. Later at the Fuchsia 
Show in Los Angeles, in a special glad exhibit, the 
visitors voted it a 7 to 1 favorite. 
Fortunately it has been time tested and_ stock 
available is ample to permit a low introductory price. 
Bulbs available in both large and medium sizes, to- 
gether with bulblets. Deliveries will start in October.
