GENERAL GLADIOLUS LIST @ Continued 
Early Rose. A new-comer from Canada. It 
is a beautiful rich rose—a color that is 
different and appealing. 
EL-NATHAN. Beautifully ruffled flowers 
of a pleasing salmon on a very straight 
spike. Liked well wherever grown. Grant- 
ing that the placement is at times poor it 
is still worth while. 
Kthel Cave Cole. An early midseason in a 
large light pink. Not only produces ex- 
hibition spikes but is accepted among the 
Florists as one of the newer cut-flower 
varieties. It is very good. Per doz., $1.50. 
Fahenjunker. Over a period of several 
years this tall, light yellow has proven 
itself to be tops in the light yellow class. 
It certainly makes a huge bouquet. 
Fanny Crosby. Beautiful cream-white with 
many open. 
Gertrude Swenson. A beautiful orchid that 
will open up as many as 14 at once. 
Gloriana. Beautiful glowing salmon-apricot. 
Golden Dream. Without doubt the best late- 
flowering deep yellow. Tall. 
Gold Eagle. The best early deep yellow. 
Gov. Pinchot. A dark rose self. This with- 
out doubt is one of the prettiest of the 
deep rose pinks. The buds ias they open 
up look like rose buds. New and differ- 
ent. Per bulb, 15c; per doz., $1.50. 
John S. Bach. Is an exhibition glad of 
orange-salmon-red, opening up to 12

Kundard’s Yellow Wonder. Is a fine tall 
cut-and-come-again yellow. 
La Paloma. True orange. Makes a tall 
spike. 
Orchid Corsage. Following is the origina- 
tors description: “A beautiful Gladiolus 
that visitors say looks so much like an 
Orchid. In the last three years I have 
sold it for many weddings. The color is 
a pinkish Orchid shade and the florets 
are heavily ruffled, round and flat open 
attached close to stem with heavy sub- 
stance with perfect placement. Very 
choice.” Each, 50c; doz., $5.00. 
Maid of Orleans. A very good dependable 
creamy white. 
Mammoth White. As the name implies— 
the largest and best of our cut flower 
white Gladiolus. 
Marguerite. ‘A new mammoth size cut- 
flower introduction from the north west. 
It is a clear, bright watermelon pink with 
light cream throat. It can be grown to 
over 8” to each floret. In the field with 
just ordinary care it makes five foot 
spikes with 7” florets and 34” heads. Try 
this big fellow. Per doz., $2.50. 
Margaret: Beaton. A new clear white with 
a small orange scarlet blotch. This is 
one of the recent outstanding introduc- 
tions. Very good, and very much liked 
by all. Per doz., $1.50. 
Minuet. A clear lavender self. Still the 
best lavender. 
Mohawk. A new fine, deep, velvety red. 
Opens up about 10 large blooms. Per 
doz., $2.50. 
MRS. A. R. PONTIUS. It is one of the 
most dependable white Gladiolus we 
grow, both in the field and on the show 
table. Mrs. A. R. Pontius will grow as 
large as Mammoth White, its seed parent, 
but will produce far better spikes with 
placement nearly perfect. Its small rose- 
lavender blotch only adds to its immacu- 
late beauty. This variety makes a fine 
looking round bulb which will reproduce 
year after year. Per doz., $2.50. 
MRS. CHAS. VAN RYN. In another lovely 
pink Glad of the shade that has become 
increasingly popular among Gladiolus 
lovers. Its unique charm is best described 
by the early acquired appellation of 
“Pink Minuet.” Its mellow salmon shade 
(similar to that of Picardy) deepens 
slightly in the throat. It is on the Se- 
lected List of the best pink at the Trial 
grounds of the University of Alberta, 
Alberta, Canada. Per doz., $1.50. 
MRS. HOWARD BOW. We believe is our 
best recent introduction. It is a result of 
a cross from Com. Koehl X Picardy that 
has given us so many outstanding seed- 
lings. It is a beautiful salmon-pink with 
scarlet tones and a lighter throat. The 
center of each petal is ribbed lighter, the 
lower petals showing a small red line. It 
is deeper than Picardy and the back of 
the petals are a most beautiful, even, 
deep salmon color. Medium early and 
grows as large as Picardy and is disease 
free. Mrs. Howard Bow makes a large, 
tall plant and is a good propagator and 
germinator. It is in the exhibition class, 
making a very god cut flower. Per doz., 
$2.50. 
MRS. CLYDE RULEY. Not quite as large 
as Mrs. Howard Bow, but a very strong 
tall grower and propagator. A _ little 
deeper scarlet than the above with a 
creamy yellow throat markings. It has 
straight spikes and a bouquet of this new 
red is very pretty. Per doz., $3.00.
