SPOTLIGHT (Palmer ’44) 413 (EM). Another fine variety that has found 
quick acceptance as a commercial cut flower glad. Bright medium yellow 
with small throat spot of brilliant scarlet red. Fine healthy grower with 
good plant and bulb habits. 
L 2—.25, M 4—.25. S 6—.25, Bulblets 40—.25, 100—.50. 
SPUN GOLD (Palmer ’47) 312 (VE). Not large but a good yellow for first 
early. The color is rich and good, not quite as deep as Vangold but earlier 
blooming by several days here. Floret placement is not too good usually, 
but its color and early bloom season make it valuable. 5-6 open on spikes 
of medium height. A fast propagator. 
L .35, M .25, S 2—.25, Bulblets 10—.20, 100—$1.50. 
STATUETTE (Butt ’50). See 1950 Co-Introductions. 
STORMY WEATHER (Barrett ’47) 480 (HM). A very attractive smoky in 
lighter tones; a soft blending of autumn shades that is very pleasing. The 
outer portion of the nicely ruffled petals is a light lavender gray overlaid 
with tints of rose and salmon. This shades gradually to a creamy yellow 
central and midrib area, with throat stippled rose. Stems and flowerheads 
are tall and slender but always straight. Of the 20-bud total, 7 or 8 are 
open at a time. Our favorite smoky, and one we think you will like too. 
L $1.50, M $1.00, S .75, Bulblets 4—.25, 10—.50, 100—$4.00. 
STRATHNAVER (Peattie 747) 500 (M). Huge alabaster white. Breath- 
taking in its expanse of broad petaled snowy florets when the spike is fully 
open. Purely an exhibition and home garden variety, as it is a very slow 
propagator and bulblets are hard to germinate. Attachment only fair, but 
better than might be expected considering the giant floret size. Spikes are 
tall with 22-25 bud flowerheads, 8-10 open at once. Stock scarce. Reserve 
Champion, Tri-State, 1949. 
L $1.00. 
SUNBEAM (Kuhn ’49) 320 (EM). A likely commercial prospect in the 
orange class. A Bit O’ Heaven seedling that is a great improvement. Lovely 
color—clear glowing true orange with a nice yellow throat. Of medium 
size, it is large enough for most commercial usage, and we look for it 
to become quite popular. Opens six 4-inch florets on fairiy tall, graceful, 
straight spikes. About the closest to a real orange color we have seen In 
glads. An extremely fast propagator. 
M .75, S .50, Bulblets 4—.25, 10—.50, 100—$4.00. 
SUNDANCE (Almey ’49) 412 (M). A real advance in the yellows, this is 
the best new variety we have seen in the deeper shades. Not as heavily 
ruffled as Aureole, but a deeper color and holds more open at a time—up 
to 10 in the field. Substance is very heavy; it can take the sun. A real 
yellow, and one that should become very popular. Florets are frilled and 
fluted, not too well expanded but measure 4% inches or better. Apparently 
a good propagator, and bulb and plant habits seem good. 
M $1.50, S $1.00, Bulblets .25, 10—$2.00. 
SUNLIGHT (Spiller ’46) 416 (EM). A very pretty glad that has won favor 
with florists, home gardeners, and exhibitors. The color is a combination 
of apricot, salmon, and yellow tones giving an effect of light orange, very 
pleasing. Florets are round, somewhat frilled, with 6 or 7 open on tall 
stems, flowerheads a little short in proportion. Its color reminds us of 
Rialgar, but we prefer Sunlight. A fine spike at Yakima last summer was 
judged the best amateur spike in the show. 
L .35, M .25, S .15, Bulblets 10—.25, 100—$2.00.
