STERLING (566) Harris ’50° 
This glad might be described as a lavender-purple, extra tall version of 
Elizabeth the Queen. It opens up to 10 extra large flat blooms of the heaviest 
substance. Truly a distinctive and impressive offering from an originator of 
elads with record making reputations. 
L—$1.25, M—$1.00, S—$0.75, Blts. 20—$1.00. 
STORMY WEATHER (480) Barrett ’°47 
Until this year, I have always considered Pastel the best of the smokies, 
now Stormy Weather and Opechee lead the way. Like a changing summer 
sky, this rose and grey glad never grows two spikes which ever look the same. 
A very desirable two-tone effect on an extra tall grower, that readily opens 
8 to 9 florets. Definitely one of the best smokies. 
L—$0.50, M—$0.35, S—$0.25, Blts. 2-$0.25, 10-—$1.00, 100—$6.00 
TAJ MAHAL (300) Sehmidt 751 
Here is another top 1951 introduction. You didn’t hear any ballyheo 
over it, because the originator, Elmer Schmidt, Auburn, Michigan, is a very 
modest person. Taj Mahal will bold its own on any show table as it won the 
American Home Achievement Award in 1948. It will take the blue ribbons 
in its class and stand an excellent chance of winning the 300 sectional cham- 
pionship. Not only that, but it is an exceptionally fine commercial. Why 
Just see and judge for youself. Color, white; early, 68 days; tall, straight, 
spikes easy to handle; tough, opens well when cut tight; 8 open, 6 in color; 
18 buds; healthy, and exceiient propagator. Low in price for such a premis- 
ing 1951 introduction, 
L—$0.75, M—$0.50, S—$0.25, Bits. 10—89.75. 
TRI-COLOR (3878) Beaton 750 
Almost a red, white and blue glad. Outer petals are deep violet, ivory 
throat, with two ruby marks. A unique and bizarre novelty. Wealthy and 
strong grower. Good propagator. 
L—$0.50, M—$0.35, S—$0.25, Blts 1O0—#0.50. 
WHITE CHALLENGE (501) Arnett 747 
A very large tinted white with rose throat. ‘Tall, straight, fine sub- 
stance. It is winning many championships. L-$0.30, M-$0.20, Blts. 10-$0.25. 
WHITE MAGIC (400) Kuhn 47 
In spite of its large size, here is a very dainty and strikingly ruffled white. 
L—$0.75, M—$0.50, Blts. 2—$0.25. 
WHITE STAR (400) Marek 751 
A fine ivory colored glad that promises to fit the needs of the Florida 
growers. Opens 7 beautiful florets on a 24 inch flowerhead. Produces lots of 
bulblets that germinate easily. Good shipper as it opens well .when’ eut 
tight.. Very early, too.
