Phantom Beauty (cnn Bastian) 
We have grown Phantom Beauty for the past 
five seasons and have no hesitancy in recommend- 
ing it for both commercial and exhibition pur- 
poses. It is a light pink of formal type, perfect 
placement and facing. The bulblet production 
and germination are excellent. It stands the 
prairie heat very well and never crooks. It is an 
excellent cutter and shipper. Phantom Beauty 
has been exhibited from coast to coast and has ac- 
quired an impressive show record, winning grand 
championships, sectional championships, special 
awards, and medals for most open and most beau- 
tiful flower in the show.

Red Rascal 550 (Graff 1945) 
A very vigorous growing rascal having giant 
sized heavily ruffled medium red florets with a 
small faint cream line on the lower petal. Every- 
one loves Red Rascal as it produces well from 
bulblets and has that attribute which is hard to 
find in every gladiolus—color appeal. You should 
not be without a couple of Rascals in your garden.

Red Wing 426 (Wright-Graff 1948) 
A rival in the red class, rich and vibrant with 
color, possessing much beauty and charm, which, 

Red Wing 
combined with its excellent growing habits makes 
this gladiolus one of the most outstanding grown 
by Glad Meadow. 
Red Wing attains a height of over sixty inches, 
growing from foliage lushly green and upright on 
a straight stem. It has a thirty-two-inch flower- 
head comprised of twenty-two to twenty-four 
buds with the power of opening ten 514 to 6 inch 
florets, with six buds showing color. Superim- 
posed on the lower petals is a deep scarlet blush 
which provides eye appeal. The florets are slight- 
ly recurved and ruffled, with a mid rib for accent. 
All buds open to the tip when cut tight in bud 
which is desirable in a good show and commercial 
flower. Both bulblet production and germination 
are very good, producing tall, straight, saleable 
spikes. 
Red Wing is conservatively priced for a gladio- 
lus of such high caliber. The stock is limited, so 
if interested, may we suggest that you do not 
delay in placing your order. All who have seen
