416 STRALIA (Both) (our ’47 import 
release) M. Color is clear, unmarked, 
salmony buff, brilliant. Here is a glad 
to watch. Its ruffling is superb and its 
clean, beautiful color is outstanding. 
Large but not a giant. Tall but not too 
tall, 55 inches. After two years of grow- 
ing a minute bulblet starting stock, it has 
begun to expand like an atom bomb. So 
next year we expect to have enough to go 
around. All of its habits, stem, substance, 
placement, attachment, bulb health, ger- 
mination, etc., appear to be far above 
“satisfactory level.” 
Each L $2.00 M $1.00 S .50 Blts .10 (100,

color. Deep, tangerine orange, spectacu- 
larly blotched purple, overlaid cerise with 
a single rib down center of lower petals.

are of leathery texture, propagation is 
easy and good and sizeable spikes are

mercial habits.

524 BOBBY DAZZLER (Both) (our ’42 
import release) EM. Has great intensity 
of color, brilliantly clear, velvety red- 
orange with deeper throat mark. In 
spite of occasional slight burning if allowed 
to bloom on plant in extremely hot sun 
the variety has built up an enviable 
reputation both as a show bloom and cut 
flower. Florets are wide open, 514-6% 
inches diameter, 5-7 open, well spaced on 
the stem.

THE GLADIOLUS FANCIERS 

522 TUNIA’S DELIGHT (Both) (our ’47 
import release) M. As beautiful and re- 
fined a glad as we have discovered in 
many years. Clear, liquid, deep orange 
of huge size with a narrow, perfect blue 
margin around the edge of every petal, a 
marvelous beauty able to open 8 at one 
time. If well grown, many _bulblets 
bloom and make very sizeable bulbs. 
Though available to purchase but a short 
time and then only at high prices, it has, 
nevertheless, crowned itself with glory by 
obtaining the Color Champion Award at 
the large Ohio (Cleveland) show. 
At both this show and the later Ohio 
(Solon) show it received firsts in its color 
in the Recent Introduction sections, ’47.

percent of crooking. Can do some fading
