VIOLET - Light Blue 76 Dark Blue 78 
This is still a rather weak class but the varieties listed are tops. BLUE 
BEAUTY is still far out in front in its class and HIGH LIFE was tied for first 
place in 1949, 
476 BLUE BEAUTY (75 days) the best medium blue. It is a rich color shad- 
ing deeper in the throat. This European variety has 5-6 of 18 buds open 
at one time. Our commercial blue. 
Large 3-25c, 10-70c 
376 HIGH LIFE (70 days) a new light blue Holland variety introduced in 
1946, clear in color with many open on a tall straight spike. 
Large 2-30c, 5-60c 
DARK SMOKIES - Class 86 
Again this year we are listing the top three glads in their respective classes. 
Due to heavy bulb sales last year we are unable to list anything but small. 
586 FLYING FORTRESS (93 days) lavender gray with a small and very at- 
tractive red tongue on lower petals. Immense florets sometimes reaching 
8 inches across from large bulbs. Opens 10-12 florets on a 17 to 20 bud 
spike. This is a very fine glad and stands up well. 
Small 2-25c 
386 OKLAHOMA (90 days) a beautifully ruffled pinkish lilac. One of the 
very best smokies and different from all the rest. 5 inch florets, 7 open, 
18 buds, 26 inch flowerhead, 48 inches tall. . 
Small 2-25c 
586 TUNIA’S MAHOMET (75 days) an early smoky plum rose, with orange 
scarlet throat. Opens up to 8 giant florets on a tall straight spike. A 
good propagator. 
Small 2-25c 
ANY OTHER COLOR - Class 90 
This class is for the odd colors which cannot be placed in any definite class 
but should not be overlooked. Last year our stock of PINOCCHIO, ROBINSON 
CRUSOE, and SAHARA was depleted and orders turned down. Our stock is 
too low to list these varieties but they will be back next year. There was also 
a heavy run on BUCKEYE BRONZE stock so to get this variety you had better 
order early. 
490 BUCKEYE BRONZE (90 days) a burning autumn bronze with 6-8 open 
on a tall straight spike. The top show winner in its class.
