A variety that has found favor with the fans, Cover 10 1.20 .80 .40 
Girl is capable of producing sensational spikes. It 
opens up to 10 huge florets on a giant spike. Plants 
grow tall and robust. Bulblets are produced in 
quantity and germination is good. Cover Girl was 
Grand Champion at the Eastern International show 
at Binghamton this year (1949).

A very consistent grower that opens up to 6 plain 10 1.60 1.20 oom OOM OO 
petaled florets of deep orange with a strawberry 
Flotch. It is a heavy producer of bulblets that grow 
with ease. Florets are of good substance and place- 
ment and are nicely arranged on a spike of 14 to 16 
buds. Good commercial. 
CRIMSON TIDE (452) Roberts ‘45 (90) 1 -60 40 YAS) 10 35 
An unusual variety that attracts lots of attention. 10 4.80 3.20 2.00 100 2.80 
Very heavily ruffled florets of deep crimson with a 
small white throat blotch. It opens up to 6 florets 
of leathery texture on a long flowerhead. Bulblets 
are hard to germinate and should be peeled or 
cracked. I know of nothing quite like Crimson Tide. 
CRINKLECREAM (410) Ellis “40 (86) 2 2 SO 24-20 LOO 75 
This beautiful clear medium yellow ranks near the 10 1.00 75 40 
top for color value. To be at its best it requires an 
abundance of water and when the proper moisture 
is supplied it will give you tall heavy spikes with 
good flowerheads. It opens up to 5 lightly ruffled 
florets of good substance. A little shy on bulblets. 
Wonderful commercial when growing conditions are 
to its liking. 
CYNTHIA (410) Graff ‘49 (75) 1.40 
A smooth medium yellow that performed exceeding- 1 3.00 2.00 1.00 10 3.00 
ly well. It opens up to 7 lightly ruffled recurved 10 24.00 16.00 8.00 100 24.00 
florets on a well balanced flowerhead with good 
placement and attachment. It is a good strong 
grower from bulblets. Cynthia gave an excellent 
account of itself here. 
DAISY MAE (521) Lins ‘45 (90) 1 15 10 3-.15 10 aS 
A consistent growing variety that makes fine 10 1.00 75 40 100 1.00 
spikes from any size bulb. Opens up to 8 round 
tlorets on long flowerheads. Color is orange pink 
with a deep salmon throat blotch. Prolific pro- 
ducer of bulblets that germinate with ease. Easy 
cutter. We cut fine spikes of Daisy Mae from No. 5's 
in the fall. Amateur 3 spike champion at Illinois 
Regional show at Kankakee this year (1949). 
DEBORAH SAMPSON (440) Scheer ‘47 (85) 1 .60 45 .30 5 29 
A delicate pink, blending to a creamy buff that 10 4.80 3.60 2.40 25 ~=1.00 
makes uniformly good spikes. Its 6 to 8 recurved 100 3.50 
florets are gracefully arranged on nice spikes. 
Bulblets are produced freely and germination is 
good but don't expect many large bulbs the first 
year. Makes good spikes from small bulbs. 

From Washington, Missouri— 
The glad bulbs arrived in excellent condition and we are more than pleased with thei 
appearance. Every bulb a perfect shape with several higher than they are wide.
