the very tip. Plants are strong and 
healthy and beyond a doubt it is at the 
head of the white class. The leading 
white commercial. L. 15c; M. 10c; S. 
7c; Bulbelts 10-20c; 100-$1.00. 
SIR GALAHAD (Salbach) 511. Patent- 
ed, soft, rich, clear creamy yellow with 
a diamond shaped blotch of rich crim- 
son, in ‘beautiful contrast. Words fail 
us to describe its unusual beauty. Six 
6-inch florets wide open, a bit recurv- 
ed, 18 bud. Tall, strong spikes with 
long flowerhead. L. 25c. 
SKYLARK (Palmer ’48) (80) 523. A 
very bright, vivid orange with a large 
throat of gold. Grows to 4 feet in 
height with 6 open. A bright striking 
color combination you will like. L. 
$1.00; M. 75c; S. 50c; Bulblets 10-$1. 
SNOW PRINCESS 400. An _ improved 
Maid of Orleans, being purer in color, 
larger and more uniform in perform- 
ance. Very strong grower. L. 8c, 3-20c; 
M. 6c, 3-15c; S. 4c, 8-25c. 
SNOWSHEEN (Snyder) 300. <A pure 
white that really is pretty. Is a sure 
winner in its color. L. 10c, 3-25c; M. 
8c, 3-20c; S. 6c, 3-15c. 
SPARKS (Glass-Gove) (M) 507. A most 
unusual and striking glad with its 
large splash of color on a background 
of cream or ivory. Aptly named, one 
can almost imagine the large flame col- 
ored blotch with its uneven margin as 
sparks shooting out toward the petal 
edges. A tall strong rugged grower 
with long flowerheads. Six or more 
large frilled flowers open, rather in- 
formally placed (often one-over-one) 
and well attached to the stem. A won- 
derful novelty; we think one of the 
very best varieties of Canadian origin, 
and there are plenty of good ones com- 
ing from our friends north of the bor- 
der. L. 35c; M. 25c; S. 15c; Bulblets 
10-30c. : 
SPIC AND SPAN (Carlson) 432 (Mid- 
season). Tall ruffled deep pink, cap- 
able of winning for longest flower 
head and most open florets. Spic and 
Span is a cross of Picardy and New 
Era, combining the good points of both. 
I have never known one to crook. 
Spikes are gun barrel type, carrying 20 
to 22 buds and opening 10 in the field 
with 6 more in color. It holds its deep 
pink color perfectly to the tip. A fine 
cutter from medium and small sizes. 
Good propagator and germinator. Has 
won innumerable championships at 
leading 1947 and 1948 shows. L. 75c; 
M. 60c; S. 50c; Bulblets 10-75c; 100- 
$5.00. 
SPOTLIGHT (Palmer) .413. Clean medi- 
um yellow with a small red _ throat 
blotch. Spotlight is one of the finest 
glads grown. In our planting of several 
hundred bulbs, we never saw a short 
spike or one with a short head. Florets 
are of large size and are _ perfectly 
placed. It will open 7 and is a_ very 
good keeper. It also opens well from 
tight cut bud. It is a very heavy pro- 
ducer of easily germinating bulblets. 
With the price down this year, no gar- 
den should be without Spotlight. L. 
15c; M. 10c; S. 7c. Bulblets 100-50c. 
STELLA ANTISDALE (Evans) 540. 
Smooth, soft, light pink, a bit lighter 
and creamy in throat. Color has what 
might be termed a suede finish. Seven 
to 9 open easily in the field; 18 to 20 
buds. L. 2-25c; M. 2-20c; S. 2-15c. 
STOPLIGHT (Lins) 452 (Midseason). A 
stopper, indeed! Has a rich, silky lus- 
ter. A brilliant color and tall, hand- 
some spikes of scarlet. Very good grow- 
er. L. 10c, 3-25c; M. 8c; S. 5c.

spike. This variety is very fragrant and 
a good seed producer. Good for hybrid-

SUMMER GAL (Zimmer) 542. A beau- 
tiful, glowing, geranium pink. It will 
open 8 to 11 6-inch slightly ruffled 
florets with several ‘buds showing color. 
Florets never fleck and the spike is al- 
ways straight. L. $1.00; M. 75c; S. 50c. 
SUN SPOT 417. Light apricot buff with 
rose spot in throat. 7 to 9 5-inch flow- 
ers open at once, making fine exhibi- 
tion spikes. Tall, straight, a good grow- 
er. Very good. L. 75c; M. 50c; S. 30c.
