New York: ‘“T liked your Nordic Queen and con- 
sider it one of the best. I'll warrant that it will get 
plenty of blue ribbons next year when more stock is 
available.”—W. H. Pierson. 
Idaho: “Magnet was absolutely superb with me, 
every spike ramrod straight (in a very crooky year) 
and very tall and healthy ... Knighthood was very 
fine, perhaps the best purple I had out of about 15 
grown, including King David, The Rajah, and Kashmir 
. . . Helios made a tremendous spike with a lot open 
. . . Crusader and Nordic Queen were excellent... 
Florentine was my choice of 25 whites grown this year 
with the most magnificent spikes I have seen... 
Also outstanding and even more vigorous was Mother 
Fischer.”—Robert L. Jensen. 
Wisconsin: “Magnet was a honey ... they were a 
sight to behold ... We had our usual good luck with 
your bulbs and introductions, winning a good share of 
our ribbons on bulbs that you have supplied us”—A. 
R. Aanes, M.D. 
Nova Scotia: “We were very much pleased with 
our glads last year—particularly Flora, Magnet, and 
Carnival . . . Wedgwood and Friendship were also all 
that we desired in a glad.’”—Mrs. Byron E. Fancy. 
SPECIAL OFFERS ON OUR 1953 INTRODUCTIONS 
Most glad originations introduced for around $5 per bulb are sold largely to other growers and cata- 
loguers the first year. By holding the price of a Noweta Gardens introduction down to a maximum of §$2, 
as we have done now for nearly ten years, we have built up an extensive first-year retail clientele for our 
introductions. In fact the group of offers on this page has become one of the most popular features of our 
catalog. 
The truth is that we'd like to be able to offer our introductions for $1 per bulb the first year and even- 
tually it may be feasible to do this. 
Our low introductory prices are the result of testing and propagating seedlings one year longer than 
usual. As a result Noweta originations are not only in better supply when introduced but more fully tested 
as to quality, and, therefore, less likely to fall down after introduction. Every variety is tested by experts 
in different parts of the country before being offered. 
In taking advantage of any of the splendid values offered below, please remember that early orders 
get the preference in bulb sizes. Because of the heavy demand, we often run out of large bulbs. However, 
medium bulbs do give fine bloom also and excel in propagation. We predict that you'll be thrilled to bloom 
these new beauties in your own garden.
