“We made a display at the Los Angeles County Fair about three weeks ago and it created 
quite a sensation. The fact that many of the wholesalers to whom we shipped, such as Trout 
Wholesale in Oklahoma City, Furrow and Company in Oklahoma City, and J. B. Parks in Dallas, 
kept making repeat orders on this particular glad, gave us our first inkling that we really had 
a seller. They usually referred to it as the yellow Picardy with the red throat. 
“We are looking forward to handling them again next year for Mr. Lawrenson with greater 
success. We hope that whatever your plan is for the glad that you will meet with the same 
success we have had.” 
In view of the above | think you owe it to yourself to get a start in this history making glad.

FROM C. W. LEFFINGWELL 
Sublime (466) (Early) Here is a very beautiful clear light bluish lavender, nearly the 
———————_ color | have often seen in the sky. White throat and midribs. Not ruffled but the 
midribs are somewhat raised. Opens 5-6 large flat open, well placed blooms on a spike of 
19 buds with 5-7 showing color. Tall slender willowy stems. Healthy dark green foliage. 44% 
feet or more tall. 
| have grown this 2 years and both years have been very favorably impressed with its 
clean clear color and its healthy growing habits. For the home garden or local cut flower use 
at least | am sure you will love it as | do There is nothing else like it. Good propagator but the 
stock is still small. Should be held another year but am letting you in on it now. 
$2.00 per bulb for any size available. 1 bulb and 10 bulblets $4.00. 
FROM J. J. MAREK 
White Star (400) (Very early—60-70 days) This creamy white is said to be very early 
——_____ and just bursting with health and vigor. | have not seen it but hear great 
things about it. It opens 6 with 16-20 total buds, with good placement and attachment. Blooms 
are somewhat wavy and 3 cornered. Scores about 86 from visible features. And besides it 
opens well in water and is a heavy propagator. It is not a show flower but rather the com- 
mercial type tho it has won some prizes. 
Large $2.00 each; medium $1.50; small $1.00. With bulbs you may buy 10 bulblets for 
$2.00 extra. 
Grower's Units: 4 large, 4 medium, 4 small and 50 bulblets for $25.00.

FROM C. C. MARSHALL 
Gold (412) Rich clear golden yellow of fine form. Blooms are nicely ruffled, well attached 
and placed. Tall strong rugged plant with a long head when well grown. Opens 6-8 
beautiful blooms. A great prize winner and should be a fine commercial. | think its one fault 
might be that when not well grown it like its parent, Orange Gold, might be inclined to have 
rather short heads. But when given the right conditions that every good glad deserves it is the 
most gorgeously beautiful and grand deep yellow in existence. | have seen it that way. You 
will make no mistake in getting a start with GOLD. 
Bulbs any size available $5.00 each. 1 bulb and 6 bulblets $10.00. Bulblets not sold 
separately. 

“We were very pleased with the selection of gladiolus you shipped us last spring. Most 
of the colors were really beautiful despite the very bad season.”
