BIRCHVILLE GARDENS — Plainville, Connecticut 
ARISTOCRAT (Salman 50) 464—85 
Very tall Purplish wine-red that gets 
lighter at the edges. Has leathery tex- 
tured florets on a strong spike. Will 
be a heavy winner at the shows. 
ATATURK (Salman 51) 354—75 
Very deep black Red with velvety 
glow; almost black in full sunlight. 
Certainly one of the best in this color, 
grows tall with 6 open. Visitors to 
the gardens like this one. 
ATTITASH (Kelly 49) 461—85 
This one is really different and in my 
opinion the best novelty glad. Very 
tall rosy lavender with small white 
blotch. Opens 7, 42 to 5 inch florets 
on a 20 bud spike. Very tall grower, 
better try Attitash. 
BARBARA B. (Van Voorhis 52) 462—75 
Bright medium rose with large white 
throat blotch. Flowerhead 22 inches 
with 7 open on a 20 bud spike. The 
5 inch florets are firmly attached. If 
you like novelty glads, | am certain 
you will like this one. 
BENARES (K. & M. 52) 543—85 
One of the pleasant surprises of the 
1953 season. A clear deep pink with 
carmine throat feathers. Opens 6-8 
firmly attached large florets on a tall 
spike. One of the best, both for 
shows and cut-flowers. 
BLACK CHERRY (Rich 48) 554—85 
Tall dark red, growing 50 inches or 
more. Flowerheads are 24 inches in 
length, carrying 18 to 20 buds. Opens 
6-8 six inch blooms. A heavy show 
winner and good increaser. 
BLUE BONNET (Beardmore 48) 476—80 
A clear medium shade of blue with a 
rosy red throat. It opens up to 7 well 
placed florets on a good spike. The 
color is pure and clean. Most promis- 
ing among the blues. Growth is vi- 
gorous and disease-free. One you will 
like. Voted most popular variety at 
Connecticut show in 1953.
