Illinois: ‘‘Everytime I see a pretty pink and say to 
myself, ‘There’s a sweet glad’, it turns out to be 
Friendship.’’—Elizabeth Reish. 
California: ‘‘Most of the ones you sent me for my 
trial garden did very well indeed. Better Times, 
Boulogne, Florence Nightingale, Cupid, Friendship, 
Regal Red, Starlet, and Summer Snow were outstand- 
ing.’’—Forrest J. Kincade. 
Washington: ‘‘Noweta Rose looks like tops. Our 
second choice of your 50’s is Nocturne. Lavender 
Lace won a blue at Tacoma. 488-42 (Belvidere) 
bloomed among the earliest and is our only early deep 
red. It grew straight with a 30-inch flowerhead and 
opened to the tip in water after being cut ... Sum- 
mer Snow is becoming our favorite white.’—D. M. 
Merrin. 
Florida: “Bulbs were planted July 11. Heart O’Gold 
and Little Gold bloomed on August 25 (44 days), which 
is the shortest time I have seen a glad come into 
bloom . . . Noweta Rose, the best color ever created 
in its class. What a fabulous color and just the 
color we are so badly in need of. I just love it.”— 
M. W. Byvoet.
