a wonderful future.

The beautirul blendings. of this outstanding smoke 
gradually tones from a deep on the outer edges to a

heavily ticked brown and ble which gradually merges 
into a toning that makes a real smoke so fascinating.

obtain that spectacular formal spike it is capable of 
producing.

Every S.A. Glad. fan will agree that with the assist- 
ance of our able Secretary, Mazzie has worked wonders 
with the S.A. Glad. Society. Bringing the membership

achievement. This super Exhibition Gladiolus with pei-

possible to improve it.

We present this glorious ruffled brownish-orange 
smoky with every assurance. It has everything required 
to rank this as the most beautiful Decorative in Com- 
merce. Named after No. 1 wizard in Australian Gladio- 
lus circles. We, however, still feel confident it will do 
full justice to such a genius as Jack Fallu. We consider 
it a great privilege having Mr. Fallu’s acceptance in 
naming this Glad. in his honor as we in South Australia 
fully appreciate just what Jack Fallu has meant to the 
Australian Gladiolus industry.
