feet and over, sometimes reaching 5 feet. Blooms are up to 514 inches with up to 10 open and 
8 showing. Good substance, good placement and attachment. A willowy stem that is not weak 
and not too stiff. Fine propagator. Good shipper and opener. An American Home Achievement

~~ ¢lear cameo pink with heavy midribs and a yellow lip. Heavily ruffled and 
rolled back petals. Opens 8-9 in the field on a very strong vigorous plant reaching 5 feet and 
over with a head up to 32” long carrying 22 buds. Stem is willowly and straight. Blooms up 
to 5’ and with leathery texture. Good keeper, good propagator but it is probably being intro- 
duced a year too soon as the stock is yet small. This is a real one.

“These No. 5 and 6 bulbs | got of you last spring grew to 21% inches and over in diameter 
and were loaded with bulblets. Many had up to 14 blooms per spike and plants grew nearly 5 
feet tall.’ —NMaura B. Ranke, lowa 
“| left the selection up to you and asked you to send bulbs that would produce flowers, 
equal or better, than my neighbors grew. Really Mr. Gove | don’t think anyone around here 
had as nice glads as | did this year. | know you would have been very happy and realize your 
efforts are worth while if you could have seen the expression on the faces of those who saw 
these glads, especially the shut-ins and old folks.”’ —M. J. Hooper, Colorado 
“The bulbs you sent me this spring were of excellent quality and | enjoyed the many beauti- 
ful spikes they gave me. — John Pease, Conn. 
“The bulbs | ordered from you last year produced some of the finest blooms | have ever 
seen. | won several prizes with the blooms.” —John Owings, W. Va. 
LABELS 
Everyone who grows bulbs under name will want labels. There are many different kinds on 
the market but | think the best cheap label is a painted wooden one. However, in using the 
wooden labels they really should have a coat of varnish after the name is written, otherwise 
the paint will weather off taking the name with it.
