GENERAL LIST 
ACE OF SPADES (Sisson ’50) 454 (EM). At last here is a black red 
that is a good tall grower with stretchy flowerheads and large florets. 
There is a small white line around the petals, often so faint it is hardly 
noticeable. Opens only 5 or 6 florets at once, but they are very large 
and nicely ruffled. A good propagator of bulblets that germinate and 
grow well. 
M $1.50, S $1.00, Blts. .25 each, 10—$2.00 
ADORABLE (Woods ’49) 541 (M). A large flower of delicately enticing 
color—pale orchid-rose with the lower or lip petals dotted or stippled a 
darker shade of rose. It will open 6-7 very large nicely ruffled flowers 
at a time on tall, graceful spikes. General effect a little similar to CeD: 
Fortnam; flowers somewhat larger but plant not as tall. 
M $1.00, S .50, Blts. .20 each, 10—$1.50. 
ANDRENA (Armstrong ’50) 460 (EM). Beautiful clear light rose pink 
with lower petals almost entirely cream. Florets are nicely ruffled and 
are of very heavy substance and waxy texture. Seven or eight 47-inch 
florets are open on moderately tall stems. Andrena had a fine year with 
us; every bulb made an exceptionally beautiful spike. A very good 
propagator. 
L $1.50, M $1.00, S .50, Blts. 2—.30, 10—$1.20, 100—$9.50 
ANNE SHERMAN (Woods ’51) 540 (M). A fine new pink with an 
abundance of charm and individuality. Color is a lovely clear medium-light 
pink with nicely ruffled florets and slightly raised midribs. One of our 
favorites of the 1951 introductions; we look for Anne Sherman to become 
very popular even though it comes into a well-populated color class. It 
may not have the florescence to win championships, but should be a con- 
tender for “most beautiful” at any show. 6 or 7 large flowers are open 
at once on good spikes. 
L $3.00, M $2.00, Bits. .40 each, 10—$3.00 
ATOM (Hedgecock ’46) 236 (VE). Perhaps the best-liked of all the 
miniatures; very outstanding in color and dainty grace of spike. Tech- 
nically a “small” glad rather than a miniature, but in line with general 
usage we will continue to refer to the combined 100-200 classes as minia- 
tures—there are so few good 100-size glads that the two classes are 
often combined at the shows. Atom opens about four dainty little florets 
on thin, wiry stems. Bright scarlet with a narrow cream-white margin 
describes the color. Makes plenty of large bulblets which germinate well. 
L .20, M 2—.30, S 3—.25, Blts. 15—.25, 100—$1.50 
AUREOLE (Pruitt 748) 410 (EM). No other yellow combines such lovely 
clear color with intense ruffling and perfect floret form. About six large 
ruffled flowers are widely-opened on spikes of medium height. A fine 
progagator of large bulblets. Aureole is rated best exhibition light yellow 
in the latest N.A.G.C. symposium. 
M 4—.25, S 8—.25, Blts. 50—.25, 100—.40 
AUTUMN BEAUTY (Phillips, Aust., 47) 423 (E). If you want an early- 
blooming novelty color to go with those early season varieties in other 
shades, grow some Autumn Beauty. Although probably not a show flower, 
it is different and has been very popular with visitors to our garden. 
Medium salmon-orange often flushed with deeper tones; quite a prominent 
red-orange feather. Flowerhead is not too long, although stem below 
first flower has plenty of height. 
L $1.00, M .60, S .40, Blts. 4—.25, 10—.50, 100—$4.00 
‘Many thanks for the fine overcount and extras; also it was a pleasant 
surprise to receive a much more expensive variety on the substitution. 
It is a pleasure to order from you.” R.L.J., Idaho, 4/29/51
