NEW NAMES IN THE GLADLAND CATALOG 
This past season when we grew more than 300 varieties that were new to us, va- 
rieties that were so good that we have added more than 100 of them to our list, makes 
our varietal comments a real task inthat it would take a big volume to describe them in 
detail. Below we list these additions, and the very fact that we find it necessary to add 
them, should be in itself about as strong an argument that you, too, will enjoy them, 
as we could use. This season we list 67 White and Cream, 41 Yellow and Buff, 31 
Orange, 54 Salmon shades, 20 Scarlet, 64,Pink, 41 Red, 33 Rose, 18 Lavender, 28 
Purple and Violet, 23 Smoky, 13 any other cdjor, for a grand total of 433 varieties. 
When we do praise a variety, its first reqbisite must be ability to produce fine spikes 
from all bulbs tested. When it does not do’so, regardless of the ultra perfection of a 
single spike, we must reserve our opinion until we have grown it again. For example, 
we planted four small bulbs of White Challenger. One made an absolutely gorgeous 
spike; one good; two very mediocre. For this reason before we can recommend it, we 
must grow it again, or see its performance in other fields. As on the contrary, we planted 
6 bulbs of Pastel, sizes 1 to 6; all bloomed with spikes as lovely as one could desire; all 
made fine strong bulbs with ample bulblets. Hence in our color class comments it merits 
and will receive recognition. While lack of space precludes growth comment, all va- 
rieties which we mention in our comments, have made satisfactory growth.
