Name — (Class-Introducer- Year) Description 
ELIZABETH K. BOTH (530 Both 48-49) A huge medium salmon 
with a light orange throat. The 7” florets are well attached to 
tall, strong spikes. One of the most promising of the giants. 
EVANGELINE (540 Palmer 48) Very lovely light rosy pink with 
a creamy throat. Grew 66” tall with 23 buds on a 29” flowerhead 
and nine 514” florets open. Has been Grand Champion several 
times. Only fault is some misplacing. 
*EXPANSE (540 Hill, N. Z. 47-49) Looks like one of the best from 
“down under.’ Medium pink with a white rib in the middle of 
the petals and a cream throat shaded deeper around the edges. 
Opens 7 very large florets that are well-attached in good placement 
on fine spikes. A strong propagator and reliable grower. 
FIRE GLEAM (536 Jack 49) A bright and attractive light scarlet 
with a white throat line. Makes exhibition type spikes with 8 or 
more ruffled florets on 26” flowerhead. Should be fine for exhibition 
and for commercial use. Very early. One of the best 1949 intro- 
ductions. 
FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE (4090 Harris 47) Along with Silver 
Wings, this appears to be the outstanding white. Very attractive 
and a very reliable grower for exhibition and commercial use. 
Grows 55”-60” tall, with 21 buds, 29” head, 514” florets, and 8-9 
open. Rated number | in the Canadian Symposium. 
FRIENDSHIP (440 Fischer 49) As lovely a pink as we have ever 
seen and a good grower. Opens 6-7 ruffled 414" florets that are me- 
dium pink with a cream blotch. Very early and a free bloomer 
from all sizes. One of Carl Fischer’s best. 
*GARDEN GOLD (512 Rich 48) A medium buff yellow with a 
deeper throat. Very fine and has looked like the best of the deep 
yellows during the past 2 years. Spikes were 56”-60” tall with 6-7 
large florets open on a 2614" flowerhead. 
GAY LALLY (466 Toon, N. Z. 46-49) A novelty glad. Hermosa 
pink flushed deep rose with a heavy lilac overcast and a pansy 
purple blotch. Good grower. Not attractive to us, but if the odd 
ones appeal to you, you may like it. 
GEN. EISENHOWER (542 Salman 46-48) Medium rose pink from 
Holland. A very strong husky grower with 7-8 6-inch florets open 
on a long head. One of the most outstanding varieties from Europe. 
GIANT CYCLAMEN (560 Higgins, Aus. 45-49) Light rose or cycla- 
men florets. One of the most highly recommended all-around vari- 
eties from Australia for exhibition and commercial purposes. A 
fine color, somewhat similar to Miss Wisconsin. Should become 
very popular in this country. 
GLAMOROUS (524 G. Wilson 49) Beautiful deep salmon orange 
with a cream throat. Large heavily ruffled florets of good substance 
on a well-proportioned show spike. 
GLAMOUR GIRL (540 Tonklin, Aus. 47-48) Light pink with a 
small cherry blotch. Seems to be a very reliable grower and should 
make a good commercial. Well-proportioned spikes capable of 
opening up to 12. Another variety of same name listed on last 
page. 
GOLD CHEVRON (310 Beaton 50) A truly lacinated, needle- 
pointed and lightly frilled light yellow self. The 314"-4" wide-open 
florets are perfectly placed on a medium heavy and stiff plant. 
Carries 18 buds on a 20"-24"” flowerhead with up to 7 open. We 
have grown this as a seedling (H.B. 41-43) for 2 years and found 
it very consistent and attractive. We have brought 5 spikes to 
shows with the following results: Awards of Commendation from 
Connecticut, Western Massachusetts, and Eastern New York So- 
cieties; an A rating at Binghamton, and a blue ribbon in the 310 
class at Connecticut. We wonder how many other seedlings have 
won awards whenever shown. Gold Chevron is a strong, healthy 
propagator. Very different and interesting.
