GRAND FINALE 
“A 1947 GLADLAND ACRES 
INTRODUCTION 
Originated by W. S. Andrews 
of Maine 

Color is clear warm pink, with two. small 
red feathers on lower petals extending half 
way from throat to tips. Formal: type; 5 
inch slightly frilled triangular and wide 
open florets; 21-22 buds. 8-10 florets open, 
7-8 showing color. Flower head 25 inches; 
height in field 54 inches. Bulblet produc- 
tion and germination good. Blooms in 
about 95 days. Foliage sturdy blue green, 
straight flower stem, stalks uniform, and is 
one of the best when it comes to opening 
in water. Not only has what it takes to 
make a specimen exhibition spike for the 
flower show, but it would seem to have all 
of the attributes needed for the commercial 
cut-flower grower. 
GRAND FINALE performed wonderfully 
in our test garden this summer and although 
we had only No. 5 and 6 bulbs left to plant 
showed clearly that it is as good in Oregon 
as it is in Maine. 

MR. ANDREWS with GRAND FINALE 
Unfortunately half of tthe bulblets and bulbs that Mr. Andrews sent us for growing 
were frost damaged in shipment, so stock is very short and the price of $5. 00 per bulb, 
any size, will have to be maintained for at least one more year.
