GENERAL LIST 
ALETA 520 class — 85 days. Nice light orange 
which will open 5-6 blooms on nice spike. Large 
75c, Medium 60c. 
AUTUMN FIRE 436 class — 90 days. As the 
name implies, a large-flowered orange-red and yel- 
low. Not an early gladiolus, but it will grow its 
91% by 24 inches of solid bloom without an open- 
ing in it, on a stem heavy enough to carry this mass 
of autumn fire at a season when flame color seems 
most beautiful. Shorter days dim the coloring of 
earlier flowering gladiolus, but AUTUMN FIRE 
only intensifies its beauty. Large 75c, Medium 60c. 
ARCTIC SNOW 300 class — 85 days. Tall pure 
white. Opens 7-8 medium size blooms at once. 
Large 15c, Medium 10c.
