From HATCH GLAD GARDENS 
Croesus (Seedling 
47-81) 
(Royal Gold x Xan- 
thia) (412) Here is a 
yellow that I believe 
is going places. It is 
not only one of the 
most beautiful yellows 
I know but will make 
a fine commercial. It’s 
a heavily ruffled medi- 
um yellow with slight 
throat Jines. Has 18- 
22 buds of which 8-10 
are open and the rest 
showing color. It 
grows 414 ft. tall with 
a head of 20-22”. 
Has good substance 
and attachment and 
regular double row 
placement. Opens well 
when cut in bud. 
It is somewhat like 
Xanthia but muchmore 
heavily ruffled and 
longer head. Fair prop- 
agator.

Croesus 
Festival Gers 46-32) (552) (Red 
harm x Giant) This is a deep 
red that looks very good to me. A tall straight 
healthy dark plant. Has been grown with 10 
514” slightly ruffled florets open with 8 show- 
ing on a 28” head of 22 buds. Plants will con- 
sistently grow close to 5 feet and over. The 
double row of blooms are of heavy substance 
and good placement and attachment. A row of 
these stands right up above most everything 
else in the field and ‘‘stands out’’ because of its 
fine tall stems, deep green foliage and long 
showy head of bloom. 
It will make a fine commercial. Has been 
shipped to eastern markets where it brought 
top prices. 
Any size 1/3.00, 10/25.00 
(Seedling 47-10) (Lavender 
ueen x Glacier) (566) 
Orchid lavender of an unusual tone and shading 
darker on edge. It opens 7-8 534’ florets with 
Grandesse 
as many more showing. 21 or more buds on a 
22’’ to 24’’ head. The buds resemble rose buds. 
Placement good, attachment not the best but 
satisfactory. 
Most lavenders are inclined to be short in 
growth but this one is unusually tall reaching 
5 ft. easily. It looks like a fine commercial. I 
bought it especially for my cut flower business 
but will share it with the trade. Fair propagator.
