GLADVIEW GARDENS 13 
PHANTOM BEAUTY (Bastian) 440. 85 
days. Here is a glad that wins the blue 
ribbons. It is a charming blush-pink, 
and will open 10 florets at once on near 
perfect specimen spikes. 
PIONEER (LaSalle) 532. 85 days. One of 
the most healthy and vigorous growing 
glads. Dark shell pink blending into a 
creamy throat. 
POETS DREAM (Fischer) 366. 85 days. 
Clear, light, highly ruffled, lavender, 
blending to a clean creamy throat. 
Florets precisely set on tall, strong 
stems. One of the finest new lavenders. 
PRESTIGE (Winsor). A beautiful highly 
ruffled self pink, shading to a creamy 
throat. Very fine. 
PRES. TRUMAN (Salmon) 540. Late 
mid-season. Light blush rose with a 
salmon white base. Opens 10, 7-inch 
florets on a long flower head. 
RED CHERRY (Roberts) 436. 85 days. A 
beautiful light scarlet-red, darker in 
throat. A strong grower producing 6-7 
5-inch florets on a long flower head. 
REGAL RED (Fischer) 536. 100 days. A 
king-size scarlet-red of tremendous 
vitality and luxurious beauty. Opens 
six flat, round florets a full six inches 
in diameter on gun-barrel spikes uni- 
formly five feet tall. In fact, some of 
our customers complain that it is too 
tall! Its vivid color is enhanced by a 
distinct silvery sheen overlaying the 
entire flower. A clean-cut white spear- 
head lends character to the throat. 
ROSE CHARM (Fischer) 360. Early. The 
merits of this glad is its earliness, com- 
bined with plant vigor, height and a 
beautiful color. Its rose color is clear, 
with cream throat and midribs. It has 
a long tapering flower head, and long 
stem. For this reason it is ideal for 
basket work. 
ROYAL ROBES (Lins) 352. Early mid- 
san. Heavily ruffled rich velvet red. 
The round, wide-open florets of superb 
texture and heavy substance are only 
medium size and the plants are not 
tall, but since they are so perfect and 
beautiful they do not need great size. 
These smaller glads are becoming very 
popular. 
SALMON’S GLORY (Salmon) 507. 80 
days. Rich creamy white with a strik- 
ing carmine-red blotch. Wide open 
florets and many open. Excellent stems 
and flower head. This is one of the 
best of the European releases. 
SHERWOOD (Pruitt) 470. 80 days. A 
beautiful shade of deep purple—nicely 
ruffled. It will open seven florets nice- 
ly arranged on a tall spike. 
SIBONEY (Allen) 566. 99 days. A giant 
light rosy lavender. When well grown, 
a great show winner. Has a tendency 
to produce short flower heads. 
SILVER COURT (Lins). As white as 
new fallen snow. Some professional 
growers who grow all the “whites” 
say this is the whitest glad they have 
seen. By comparison most whites seem 
cream. 
SILVER WINGS (Ritsma) 500. 88 days. 
A creamy white sport of Picardy, 
somewhat whiter than Leading Lady, 
also has a heavier substance. 
SPARKS (Glass) 507. 95 days. Glistening 
light yellow, with an orange scarlet 
blotch on lower petals. Tall and 
vigorous. 
SPELLBOUND (Lins) 442. 95 days. 
Medium deep pink blending into a 
white throat. Very good. 
SPIC AND SPAN (Carlson) 432. 80 days. 
This tall deep pink—really it is a shade 
between pink and salmon, has created 
a sensation at shows whenever ex- 
hibited. Its tall spike will open 8 to 
10—4% to 5 inch florets on a flower 
head, carrying 20 to 22 buds. Spikes 
nee crook. Its placement is near per- 
fe 64 Fy 
SPINDRIFT (Chase) 400. 90 days. 
Creamy white—darker in throat. Tall, 
robust grower producing long flower 
heads, opening 8 florets nicely placed. 
Has been a great blue ribbon winner 
at the shows.

Beautiful geranium pink with red 
feather in throat. The color is pure. 
SUMMER SNOW (Fischer) 300. 85 days. 
Pure snow white, long spikes of ex- 
cellent form.

of the most beautiful varieties in exist- 
ence. Rose pink blending into a golden 
throat. This unique blending produces 
a brilliant orange color.
