Wurtes I Like 
APRIL 
April is an early variety, a good 
coral pink. Florets are large, but 
not many open. In spite of this it 
is an excellent florists’ flower and 
good because it is early. 
BIRCH RED 
A very substantial medium red with 
round florets of heavy substance. 
Medium length flower head but a 
good commercial. I recommend it. 
BLACK CHERRY 
A fine, deep black-red, with ex- 
tremely large florets--will open 8. 
A sure winner in its class and a 
good florists’ variety. 
BLUE BOY 
I have grown this only one year, 
but discovered that it produces the 
best bulbs of any blue I grow. If 
it continues to make such fine 
bulbs it will be the leader in its 
color if for no other reason. 
BLUE ICE 
Tall glowing, light blue with cream 
throat and deep blue feather. Large 
florets, but lacking substance 
if weather is not ideal for its 
growing. 
BO PEEP 
Ruffled buff pink, small flowering 
variety. Cream throat. One of the 
few miniatures I grow and one of 
best. Blooms freely from bulblets. 
BOISE BELLE 
Has attracted a lot of attention 
this year and is in great demand. 
Deep pink with yellow lip petals 
and attractive yellow edging of 
florets. Opens 9 to 12, mffled 
blooms. Late mid-season. A winner. 
BURMA 
Everybody’s favorite, deep ruffled 
rose. Tall growing and very fine 
both for exhibition and the cut 
flower trade. 
CHUNG KING 
Tan with Chinese red stripes, 
odd colors which will be appre- 
ciated by florists who are looking 
for unusual flowers. Florets large. 
Worth trying. 
CITATION 
This new variety is enjoying a 
good reputation. Rated as one of 
the tallest varieties. Rich, med- 
ium pink. All reports I have on 
this one are excellent. I have 
good bulbs grown from bulblets. 
CONNIE G 
A new style, tall ruffled cream, 
which created much favorable com- 
ment during the first year. Won 
practically | everywhere shown. 
Opens 8 large, well placed florets 
Still high priced, but worth it. 
Why not invest in it while new? 
CYNTHIA 
Customers who purchased Cynthia 
last year write to say that they are 
well pleased with this early yellow. 
Good double row placement with 
8-10 open. 
DAISY MAE . 
Makes a large spike of deep rosy 
orange florets which have a cherry 
blotch in throat. Florets around 6 
inches and many open. A good 
commercial which is dependable 
and easy to grow. 
DAWN GLOW 
This variety is gaining in popular- 
ity. A fineccombination of sunrise 
colors. Usually short on the bud 
count, but this is offset by favor- 
able coloring, good substance and 
a practical florists’ spike 
DIEPPE 
An orange red. A very reliable 
grower. Opens 6-7 good sized 
florets on a tall straight spike. 
DUSTY MILLER 
A mulberry rose with cream lines 
on florets. Really a smoky toned 
color which .looks like a good 
variety for florists who like odd 
tones. Very good. 
EVANGELINE 
The show sensation. A beautiful 
pink with slight lavender tone 
and slightly yellow throat. Grows 
very tall with ten immense ruffled 
florets which occasionally come 
with some _ irregular placement. 
Invest in this variety now while it 
is new for a profitable investment. 
FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE 
Rated as a top-notch commercial 
white. Tall, strong-growing, pure 
white. Florets 5% inches. Many 
open. Bulblets germinate easily 
and bloom freely. . 
FRIENDSHIP 
A fine medium early pink which 
I like very much. Throat is lighter. 
a good fancy florists’ flower. Very 
artistic and nice. 
GOLD MEDAL 
Gold Medal is one of my favorite 
glads. Giant florets of deep yellow 
and buff. -Usually opens five of 
16 buds. Blooms early, so, for 
show purposes, plant a little late. 
GRACE DARLING 
A strong, healthy-growing light 
rose pink with white throat. Will 
open 8 five-inch florets on tall, 
straight stem. Looks good to me.

pink florets with lighter throat.
