TWILIGHT DREAM (480) Heberling ‘47 (80) 
A smoky, rose, tan, and cream perfectly blended. 
A very unusual color. Plant is medium tall growing. 
Opens 6 or 7 florets on a straight spike. 
VALERIA (436) Pruitt ‘38 (85) 
A soft light red in great demand for the florist trade. 
Opens 6 or 7 lightly ruffled blooms well placed and 
of fine texture. Plant is of very strong growth, mak- 
ing a heavy stem and spike. Because it opens well 
from a tight cut bud, Valeria is in heavy demand 
wherever cut-flowers are grown for shipment to the 
northern winter markets. 
VANGOLD (312) Van Voorhis ‘40 (75) 
A clean deep golden yellow, Vangold was one of 
the surprise performers in our cut-flower planting 
this season. Opens 6 to 8 five-inch plain petaled 
florets on a medium height plant. Vangold bloomed 
5 days ahead of Annamae and was much in demand. 
It produces large bulblets in quantity and is a fine 
deep yellow commercial. 
VARIATION (340) Kreuger ‘41 (75) 
A clear pink with a faint lavender cast. Each spike 
is a ribbon of color with 7 to 10 open and all re- 
maining buds in color. We have never been able 
to supply enough Variation for the florists. It is a 
reliable performer and a heavy producer of easily 
germinating bulblets. Bulbs of Variation have a 
very thin husk which gives them a rough ap- 
pearance. 
VEECREAM (407) Van Voorhis ‘39 (95) 
Cream with a small scarlet throat blotch. It opens 7 
heavily ruffled florets that are well placed and at- 
tached. It is a heavy propagator and makes a good 
commercial for local cut-flower sales. 
VIRGIN (400) Lins “46 (90) 
A pure white. Plants are very tall and produce 
straight spikes with 20 or more buds. Two years 
ago I saw Virgin growing in Mr. Lins seeding rows 
and it was the tallest variety in his planting. It 
produces quantities of bulblets which germinate 
easily. Virgin should make a very good commercial. 
WAX MODEL (400) Kreuger ‘46 (75) 
A tall growing white with a small lavender throat 
spear. Opens 6 florets on a spike that never crooks. 
Good producer of easily germinating bulblets.

Gladiolus from you received yesterday. Thanks for getting them to me early and safely. 
They look to me to be in the most promising condition of any I have had during 8 years 
of amateur efforts.
