STARLET (200) (Baerman) (’44) (Early) (Zona x 
Baby Decorah) X Queen of Bremen) Starlet is 
a flower from fairyland! Three to five crisp, 
airy. immaculate white butterflies are gracefully 
poised on tall thin, wiry stems. A bouquet of 
Starlet looks like a cluster of fluttering butter- 
flies. Individual blooms measure about 3”. 
Starlet and Little Sweetheart are the only 200 
size group glads of quality that I have seen. 
Starlet is startling in arrangements. Vigorous 
and prolific. (L 1-25¢c; 10-$2.00) (M 2-30c; 10- 
$1.20) (S 2-20c; 10-80c) (Blbts. Pkg. 35c) 
STOPLIGHT (Red) (452) (Lins) (’42) (Midseason) 
(Picardy X Seedling) A stopper indeed! Has a 
rich, silky luster, a brilliant color, and tall 
handsome spikes, but the prettily ruffled florets 
are a trifle small and far apart. Notwithstand- 
ing, it is an excellent variety. Stoplight is one 
of the most prolific glads grown. Performed un- 
usually well for us last summer. Vigorous. One 
of the best from the brush of the able hy- 
bridizer, E. H. Lins. (L 3-25c; 10-70c) (M 10- 
40c) (S 10-25c) (Blbts. Pkg. 20c) 
SUNLIGHT (416) (Spiller) (’46) (Midseason) 
(Margaret Futlon X Hercules) The outer portion 
of the slightly ruffled blooms of Sunlight is a 
delicate rose-pink which shades to a pure gold- 
en center, the whole giving the effect of bril- 
liant light orange. The first important variety 
derived from Margaret Fulton from which 
it inherits its good growing qualities. (L 1-$2.00) 
(M 1-$1.50) (S 1-$1.00) (Blbts. 1-25c; 10-$2.00) 
SURFSIDE (400) (Winsor) (’39) (Midseason) 
(Picardy X Burwood Gem) Tall ruffled white 
with slight pencil markings in throat. This 
vigorous grower was one of our favorite com- 
mercial whites this year. Blooms freely from 
small sizes. Strongly recommended for com- 
mercial and exhibition use. (L 10-70) (M 10-40c) 
(S 10-25c) (Blbts. Pkg. 20c) 
SUSQUEHANNA (416) (Herridge) (’43) (Midsea- 
son) (Heritage X Picardy) Clear peach buff 
with creamy throat. Opens 6-8 five-inch florets 
on tall straight stems. A good cutflower. Rec- 
ommended. (L 3-25c; 10-70c) (M 10-40c) (S 10- 
25c) (Blbts. Pkg. 20c) 
SWEETHEART (340) (Prestgard) (’33) (Early) 
Waxy frilled pure pink blending to a large 
snow-white throat. Extremely early. Exquisitely 
fresh colored. Need tots of water. (S 10-25c) 
(Bibts. Pkg. 20c) 
TROCADERO (422) (Lins) (46) (Midseason) 
(Picardy x Aflame) X Pfitzer’s Triumph) Tro- 
cadero is a paler Pfitzer’s Triumph which was a 
color marvel in its day. It is a rich salmon- 
orange or approximately the color of a carrot. 
Unusual. Propagates well. One of E. H. Lins’ 
best. (L 1-$1.50) (M 1-$1.25) (S 1-75c; 10-$6.00) 
(Blbts. 2-35c; 10-$1.50) 
WALERIA (436) (D. S. Pruitt) (’38) (Early-Mid- 
season) (Erica Morini X Dr. Bennett) Valeria 
is a salmon-scarlet that opens 5-7 slightly 
ruffied blooms on tall stems. Opens well in 
water because of its coarse pithy stems. The 
leading cutflower scarlet. Heat resistant. In 
heavy demand. (L 3-25c; 10-70c) (M 10-40c) 
(S 10-25c) (Blbts. Pkg. 20c) 
VANGOLD (312) ('40) (Van Voorhis) (Early) 
(Yellow Seedling X Mrs. A. E. Hammill) A tall, 
deep, golden, yellow that has been winning its 
way. For some rea‘on, it just hasn’t performed 
for us. (L 1-25c; 10-$2.00) (M 1-20c; 10-$1.50) 
(S 2-25c; 10-$1.00) (Blbts. 10-35c; 10-$2.00) 
“TI think your catalogue is the best yet. It gives 
you the real valuation of all glads, new and old 
ones, and is an invaluable help to all growers of 
glads. Most catalogues list all varieties as very 
good. Your catalogue gives one the real lowdown 
on all varieties and therefore one can buy with 
confidence.'’—Hillside Dahlia Farms, Pa. LEGEND
