NEW AND LATE INTRODUCTIONS 
LA VALLE (Lines) :—Here is a seedling, due for release just as soon as a sufficient 
quantity of stock is propagated. LA VALLE is a beautiful rich, ruffled light cream 
with small orange throat marks. Consistantly grows five feet tall. Opens 8 or more 
5'4-inch florets, on a nice long spike, always straight. Florets are so rich, they in- 
stantly attract attention. We grew LA VALLE under trial this past summer, and we 
can honestly say it has everything. We regard it superior to SUNSPOT, (if that is 
possible). LA VALLE is a Glad that can take adverse weather conditions, and still 
grow a perfect spike for you. It is a sure-fire future commercial, and its show pos- 
sibilities are unlimited. It falls in a very weak color class, (cream with marking) and 
is a decided improvement over present varieties of this color. 
We are releasing a very limited number of large bulbs in order to get a show 
record for it. We want some blue ribbons for this seedling this year. Large bulbs 
only. $5.00 each. 
INDIAN SUMMER (Langworthy-1949) :—Class 480. informal. Here is a perfectly 
named smoky that should prove a sensation on the show table, and in those many 
thousands of home gardens. Its color make-up is a diffusion of those autumn colors, 
with an overlay of grey lavender smoky. The color is so unusual that no two ad- 
mirers have been able to express the same color description. Color description is so 
difficult that we will leave you grow it for your own description. At Pasadena at 
Southern California Glad show, INDIAN SUMMER and BUTTERSCOTCH, were 
among the first five most popular flowers in the show, by public vote of those in at- 
tendence. These bulbs are Wisconsin grown. A show sensation at popular introductory 
prices. Each,

quirements for commercial culture. Opens tight; opens to the tip; and a good ship- 
per. NANCY is one of our modern Glads that has proven to be disease resistant.
