ROYAL SCOT (CI. 470) (Seedling 44275) (King Lear x Eliz. the Queen) 
(James Taylor) Silver Medal in Gladiolus Growers Trial Grounds 1950 
Royal Scot is a beautiful rose purple that has to be seen to be appreciated, Its color 
has lots of life to it and unlike most other purples improves as it opens and is more, 
not less, attractive under artificial light. 
In addition to being a much wanted color, it is a most dependable grower as all 
the spikes are even in the row and cut out quickly. In overall height it is 53 to 55 
inches with 25 inch flower heads. Total buds 19-20 with 7-8 florets open in double row 
with a similar number in color and tapered gracefully, not ending abruptly. 
Attachment is extra good, placement perfect and the wide open florets are slightly 
ruffled and 5 inches in diameter. Aptly named, Royal Scot should establish itself as 
the king of the purples for both exhibition and cut flower purposes. 
Best of all it is a fine propagator and makes big, high crowned, easily cleaned and 
good keeping bulbs. Bulblets are produced profusely and grow almost 100%. If this 
glad has any discernible faults they haven’t shown up yet. 
GREMLIN (Cl. 250) (Seedling 44971) (Crinklette x T. A. Wilson) (Butt) 
Gremlin is a ruffled miniature in a very unusual and interesting color. The out- 
side of the petals is light rosy red with a stippled throat banded yellow. 
Florets are of heavy substance, quite but not deeply ruffled and a little less than 
3 inches in diameter. Plants 36 to 38 inches in total height, flower heads 16 to 17 
inches and 16 total buds of which 5-6 open at once with 4-5 in color. 
Besides being another in our series of ruffled miniatures, Gremlin has semi-upright 
florets making it a fascinating glad for all kinds of arrangements. Just out of this 
world for table centers and small containers. 
PIROUETTE (Cl. 232) (Seedling 44771) (Crinklette x Fluffy Ruffles) (Butt) 
Silver Medal Award Gladiolus Growers Trial Grounds 1950 
Pirouette is a grand ruffled miniature in a new and exciting color, being a deep 
salmon. with a stippled throat. 
It has long flower heads 16-18 buds and 5-6 3% inch florets open at once, well 
placed and firmly attached. Non-hooded florets that look right at you, add to the at- 
‘tractiveness of this variety. 
REDSKIN (Cl. 436) (Seedling 40273) (Red Charm x J. S. Bach) (Butt) 
Bright scarlet a self-color, perhaps a bit deeper in the throat. 
This big husky glad is both extremely vigorous and very, very early. It has for 
years been one of our first varieties to bloom. Add to this extreme florescence, 8-9 
open, 6-7 in full color and you have a variety that is most valuable to the florists and 
amateur alike. 
In height it averages 50 to 55 inches, 27 inch flower heads, 19-20 buds and 5 inch 
florets. Placement double and nicely tapered, well balanced spikes. Its one fault is in 
attachment which is not of the best but still quite good. When cut in tight bud it is 
a good shipper and it opens easily and well in water.
