FOREWORD 
We appreciate the interest that growers and exhibitors have taken in 
our introductions. They are listed by a number of catalogers and are 
winning many blue ribbons at the shows. It is our sincere endeavor 
to produce the best for exhibition and commercial work. Most of our 
varieties are particularly good for hybridizing: August Moon, Birch 
Red, Black Cherry, Bronze King, Garden Gold, Garnet Glow, and 
Sunset Orange have all given excellent seedlings. Strutter has pro- 
duced by mutation the sensational “FANTASY”, a very heavy textur- 
ed, ruffled and fluted, peach pink with chartreuse spurs on the back. 
Fantasy will be ready for distribution in 1952 and will be a dream 
for corsage and arrangements. It keeps 24 hours out of water. 
We have been propagating most of our varieties by selection for sey- 
eral years, and this selected stock gradually takes its place in dis- 
tribution. Our fields and bulbs are inspected by the N. Y. State, 
Dept. of Agriculture. Bulbs are washed and quickly dried after 
digging. We take great care to furnish the cleanest, healthiest stock 
possible. We will replace or make an adjustment on any stock found 
not true to name. 
Kodachromes of our Glads and seedlings are available to groups 
for meetings, etc. There is no charge except the return postage and 
insurance. Send your requests in early. 
The number following the variety in our list denotes the N.A.G.C.
