BIRCHVILLE GARDENS — Plainville, Connecticut 

OREGON GOLD (Majeski 41) 410—110 
ee late, light yellow which is ruffled. Opens 9 medium large blooms on good flower- 
eads. 
PANDORA (B. L. Palmer 40) 442—85 
Clear soft geranium pink. Opens 8-10 blooms on a medium spike. Is really beautiful 
and in my opinion has been overlooked. Very good commercial. 
PICARDY (Palmer 31) 530—90 
The well known Picardy is a beautiful light salmon-pink. I have not offered this for 
the past five years, but now have a healthy strain of this glad that will produce 
marvelous spikes. 
PINK PARAGON (Cassabeer 48) 342—90 
Bright clear pink, which opens 5 to 7 blooms on a long flowerhead. One that florists are 
fond of. Outstanding as a commercial. 
PINK RADIANCE (Quakenbush 41) 440—85 
A pure pink, opens 6 to 8 on a tall spike. A very dependable glad and one of my 
favorites for cutting. 
PURPLE ROBE (Butt) 462—90 
Tall reddish-purple with white feathers in throat. Opens 8 on a good spike. Looks like 
a good purple. 
PURPLE SUPREME (Wilson 42) 470—85 ; 
One of the good purples for show and commercial use. It opens 8 on a very tall spike 
and is a heavy propagator. A glad which everyone seems to like. 
RADIANCE (Butt 42) 350—70 
A very early light red with deeper feather in the throat. An attractive color. Has good 
placement with 8 medium size florets open. Good early cut flower. 
RECADO (Palmer 37) 480—90 
A large smoky-rose that is an easy grower. This has been one of my best sellers for 
the past five years. Very odd and different. 
RED CHARM (Butt 39) 452—85 : 
Surely one of the best reds. Growers have bought this in very large amounts. It is 
one of the best show gilads, as well as the leading cut flower red. Outstanding. 
RIO RITA (Lins 41) 528—95 
A large exhibition orange that opens 6 large blooms on a medium height spike. Florets 
are ruffled. Some growers believe that this is the best orange. 
ROLLA (Kaylor 45) 480—80 
A novelty that is hard to describe—one of the oddest glads. It is a tall grower that 
is pee Dunle at the outer edges, shading lighter to the throat and with an orange 
overcast. 
ROSA VAN LIMA (Pfitzer 40) 460—80 
A fine light rose-pink. A very good grower and one of the best cut flowers. 
SALMAN’S GLORY (Salman 47) 507—80 
The best from Europe in some time—a supreme beauty and a giant. Pure light cream 
Been cacmine blotch. Opens 6 well placed florets. One of the very best. Attracts a lot 
of attention. 
SILVER WINGS (Ritsma 44) 500—88 
Another white sport of Picardy which is more ruffled and whiter than Leading Lady. 
It is a heavy propagator and in the opinion of some growers, much better than Lead- 
ing Lady. Truly very fine and am sure you will enjoy growing it.
