TREASURE ISLAND (Lins ’47) 540 (E). A fine tall large light pink with 
lightly ruffled florets. The towering spikes show up all over the garden, 
even tho surrounded by others of more brilliant coloring. A seedling of 
Rosa van Lima, Treasure Island is a little lighter in color, still retaining a 
hint of the rosy hue of its famous parent. Altho quite a light shade of pink, 
it is more colorful than such varieties as Greta Garbo and Beauty’s Blush. 
A fairly good propagator and bulblet germinator here. 5-6 open. A fine all 
around glad, possibly Lins’ best. Seems to do well everywhere, 
L .75, M .50, S .25, Bulblets 2—.20, 10—.75, 100—$6.00. 
TROCADERO (Lins °46) 422-424 (EM). Distinctive reddish orange, some- 
times called carrot color, altho our carrots are a lighter shade than this glad. 
Another good one from Gene Lins, this is a good spike maker, opening 6 or 7 
large round florets in good placement. Unusual and attractive. 
L .75, M .50, S .25, Bulblets 4—.25, 10—.50, 100—$4.00. 
TWINKLES (Butt ’48) 232 (E). One of the most attractive miniatures we 
have seen. The edges of the petals are a sparkling deep pink salmon, the 
entire central area is clear yellow with narrow pink lines. The very small 
florets are beautifully and heavily ruffled, spaced somewhat irregularly on 
thin, wiry stems, 15-16 bud flowerheads. Miniatures such as this one are 
rapidly increasing the popularity of the little glads. Apparently not a fast 
propagator. 
Bulbs, any size, $2.00 each. 
VENIDA (Milo ’47) 460 (M). A fine shade of medium rose with cream 
white center. Color arrangement similar to that of Betty’s Choice but a 
little deeper. Rather variable in spike length with us; however it makes 
many long exhibition type spikes with 8 or more open in perfect formation, 
and a good one is hard to beat. Good increase, fair germination. 
L $1.00, M .75, S .50, Bulblets 8—.25, 10—.70, 100—S$5.00. 
VOODOO (Kadel ’44) 486 (EM). An interesting bronze-rose smoky, un- 
usual for its veinea and stippled markings in contrast to the usual solid 
pigment formation. Not a brilliant color, one that some may consider too 
dull, but we like it for a novelty. The florets are large and of unusual form, 
being heavily waved, fluted, and often needlepointed in an interesting fash- 
ion. Tall, with very long flowerheads, 7 or 8 open at a time. A fast propa- 
gator and a fine reliable grower. Believe you will like it. 
L .30, M .20, S 2—.20, Bulblets 15—.20, 100—$1.25. 
WAYFARER (Butt 749) 460-440 (M). A good looking clear pure pink with 
creamy white throat. This description seems like a good many others, but 
it is a very attractive glad with fine color. Opens 6 or more large round 
florets on spikes of average height. 
L $1.50, Bulblets 2—.30, 12—$1.59, sold only with bulb purchase. 
WEDGWOOD (Fischer ’47) 366 (E). A very dainty clear blue lavender 
with large cream throat. Not a miniature but not as large as many in the 
300 sizes, being close to the minimum measurement of 3% inches for this 
class, as it grows here. The 5 or 6 open florets are beautifully ruffled, placed 
nicely on stems that are in keeping with the size of the flowers. A lovely 
little glad with a charm and personality all its own. A fine grower and 
propagator. 
L .35, M .25, S .15, Bulblets 10—.25, 100—$2.00.
