From MYRTLE TEEPLE, Alymer, Ontario. A grand lady who has been breeding glads for 
years and winning prizes and awards of merit on her seedlings and these are her first 
releases to the world. 
ALYMER GLORY: A fine lavender with some slight rose in it, height 52”, flowerhead 20 
to 22”, 5” florets, 18 to 20 buds, 8 open, 10 in color, stem straight and ruffled and 
waved florets. One of the finest for commercial or exhibition in a beautiful color. 
LORD ELGIN: A gorgeous dark red, perhaps the heaviest ruffling on any glad and the 
toughest texture. Not tall, grows from 40 to 48” perhaps averaging not more than 40”, 
5” florets with 16 buds, 6 open 6 in color, perfect facing and spacing and one that was 
loved by all who tested it. 
LYNNE HILL: A wonderful new color in a rose red with deeper throat and each petal 
edged with silver, ruffled 534” florets which opens 7 with 9 in color and has won its 
share of ribbons and awards of merit this past season. Height 46” with a 20” flower- 
head, and one of the most unusual glads I have ever grown. 
ORCHID MIST: A beautiful ruffled light rose lavender, shading deeper toward the edges 
and with a very distinct lavender blotch. Height about 44” with a 22” flowerhead, 
heavily ruffled and needle pointed with a 414” floret, opens wide and flat and all the 
ladies who visited my garden this season selected this as the most beautiful glad in 
the patch. Some men liked it too. 
Above four at $2.00 for any size corm and Blbts. at 20c each or ten for $1.75. 
From PHIL VERGOTE: Mt. Clemens, Michigan. Another newcomer who has been work- 
ing on glads for twenty-five years and finally has a topnotcher. 
ROSY WINGS: A perfectly beautiful light rose, ruffled, heavy textured, grows 56” with 
27” flowerhead, wide open florets with as many as ten open and 8 in color, lying flat 
against the stem. 22 buds, one of which every commercial grower will eventually buy. 
Any size corm $2.00 with bulblets at 25c each. This is too cheap for this fine glad, 
but with a new hybridizer, we want you to see it. 
From JOHN BASTIAN: Grants Pass, Oregon. Too well known to need any further de- 
scription. 
RED VELVET: A beautiful medium dark red with a pansy plush finish, like velour. A 
perfectly beautiful glad, grows about 48” with a 24” flowerhead, 20 buds, 8 open, 6 in 
color. A grand commercial or exhibition. Very rich in color, and lasts a long time in 
water. 
A real bargain at L. $1.00, M. 75c, S. 60c, Blbts. 20c each.

FROM JAMES ROBINSON, SEBASTOPOL, CALIFORNIA: 
PINK DRAGON: A miniature dragon type gladiolus. The first one we have ever seen 
and a real find for the hybridizer. Clear salmon pink, with 5-7 buds on a foot long 
flowerhead, 2” to 3” florets, heavily spurred on back of segums, so it resembles a double 
dragon. Corms are small. 
Any size corm $2.00, Grower’s unit 5 corms, 10 Blbts. for $10.00. 
Seed from above, at 10 seed for $1.00. 
CUTIE: A dainty little miniature, in a medium rose shade, shading to deeper rose toward 
the center, with deep rose throat. Faces up, 8-9 buds, on a 16” spike, extremely 
healthy, and decidedly healthy. 
Small only, at 3 for $1.00, 10 for $3.00; Blbts. at 10 for $1.00. 
This hybridizer has written a treatise on “Gladiolus from Seed”, which is the best I 
have ever read. I am able to supply copies of this treatise, at 50c each, or you may have 
one FREE with any order for $5.00 or over. 
This same James Robinson, is the producer of those HARDY glads, which were ad- 
vertised by me, in the NAGC and NEGS Magazines. They must be planted in fall and 
several customers ordered them. If you want some for 1952 fall planting, suggest you order 
them ahead. Complete list of them available on request.
