GLADVIEW GARDENS 5 

ORIENTAL PEARL (Carlson) Origina- 
tor’s Description. 506. 90 days. The 
Wonder Glad of 1946. Oriental Pearl 
is a very large wide open plain petalled 
cream. It is the finest glad I have ever 
seen in its color. Florets are easily 7 
inches in diameter and even spikes 
from medium sizes carry 18 buds. Its 
best feature lies in the fact that florets 
are strongly and closely attached to the 
stem; it can be bunched and shipped, 
in spite of its great size. I have never 
known one to crook. Price: Large, 
each 40c, 10—$3.20; Medium, each 30c, 
10—$2.40; Small, 10—$1.50; Bulblets,
