GLORY (EM 401 Allen 51) A very pretty and fine glad which is still relatively unknown. The 514” 
ruffled clean white florets have a red blotch on a cream throat and are of excellent substance. Grows

GOLD (EM 412 Marshall 51) This highly publicized new one is outstanding due to its beauty and 
depth of color. The heavily ruffled 5” florets are a clear deep yellow self of fine substance. Propagation, 
health and placement are all excellent. Grows up to 65” tall with 17 buds and 7 open on a 26” head, 
but the flowerhead is normally shorter. Has won at shows, but its greatest value should be as a com- 
mercial, due to the outstanding color.

HAMLET (EM 454 Larus 50) This, our first introduction, seems to have caught on as one of the 
best all-around black reds. It is rated the second best black red for exhibition purposes by the United 
States growers voting in the NAGC Symposium. The lightly ruffled 5” blooms are a lovely dark red 
self with no markings, the white stamens providing an attractive contrast. Substance is heavy and 
the wide-open florets are resistant to burning, flecking or weather damage. Attachment and placement 
are excellent. A strong, healthy grower that does well from all sizes. The spike shown on page 9 was 
62” tall with 18 buds on a 291'5” head.

H. V. WRIGHT (EM 410 Kadel 52) This pale yellow should prove to be one of the outstanding 
show glads in a year or two when more widely grown. It opens 8 plain petaled and slightly recurved 
5” florets on a long flowerhead. The attractive spikes are tall and straight. As a seedling it won many 
top awards and in its first year after introduction was highly praised by many who tried it. :

JEAN GOLDING (EM 420 Blackler, N. Z. 48-51) This is one of the prettiest of the whole list. The 
lightly ruffled 519” florets are salmon orange shading to a large orange yellow throat. A very con-

sistent and easy grower that makes spikes up to 60” tall with 18 buds on a 26” head and 6-7 open. 
Should be able to hold its own at the shows and is one of our favorite cut flower glads for the house. 
Seems to have the necessary qualities to become a good commercial.

JOYFUL (M 432 Coombs, N. Z. 45-48) Definitely one of our favorite glads and one which we believe 
should be widely grown for show, house, and commercial use. It is a nice easy grower and as beautiful 
as any of the pinks or salmons. Grows 55” to 60” tall with 19-21 buds on a 25”-27” head. The 5” ruflled 
florets are a clean deep salmon with a cream yellow throat, opening 6-8. One of the most versatile of 
all the glads we grow and one of the few that does not seem to have a material fault.

KAREN (LM 471 Mazur 52) Very striking new deep rose purple with a large cream blotch. In 1951 
the visitors voted this the most popular variety at the Western Massachusetts Show. Grows 50” to 
55” tall with 18-21 buds on a 24” to 27” head and 7 slightly ruflled and well-placed 434” florets. Should 
become very popular due to its outstanding florets and good growth habits. We consider it one of the 
top 1952 introductions.

KING DAVID (EM 570 Carlson 51) A glad that should not need a description due to its amazing 
success during the short period since its introduction — already rated the top exhibition and com- 
mercial purple in the NAGC Symposium. The 6” rose purple florets are heavily ruffled and have an 
attractive white edge around the petals. Consistently produces good spikes. This and The Rajah are 
a big step forward in the purple classes.

LEAH GORHAM (M 451 Gorham-Larus 51) The exceptionally favorable reception which this variety 
has received has been a source of considerable gratification to us, for we went out on a limb in describing 
this relatively unknown seedling 2 years ago. Since then it has climbed rapidly and now rates second 
to the much more widely grown Mid-America in the NAGC Symposium. We rate it as tops for both
