BIRCHVILLE GARDENS — Plainville, Connecticut 
SHERWOOD (0D. S. Pruitt 48) 570—80 
A wonderful shade, rich reddish purple, that opens 7 beautiful ruffled florets. 
Some flecking but does not detract from its beauty. One of the best in this class. 
SIBONEY (Allen 48) 566—90 
A giant lavender, somewhat darker than Elizabeth The Queen. Opens 6 to 8 
on a 22 bud spike. Has won championship honors at leading shows and is a 
wonderful variety for florists. BETTER GET A START IN SIBONEY. 
SKYLARK (Palmer 48) 523—80 
Brilliant deep salmon-orange with midribs of bright yellow. Opens six or more 
on a 50” spike. Very showy variety that has a lot of admirers. 
SPIC & SPAN (Carlson 46) 442—80 
A tall ruffled pink that opens up to 10 with 8 more showing color. The place- 
ment is excellent and the spikes are tal! and straight. Has won many cham- 
pionship awards and is a fine commercial. You can’t afford to be without this. 
SPOTLIGHT (Palmer 44) 413—80 
Without a doubt the best deep yellow of recent years. Has a pronounced scarlet 
spot in the throat. Produces tall straight spikes with 18 buds. Opens 6 well 
placed blooms. A dandy show and commercial variety. 
STORMY WEATHER (Barrett 47) 480—82 
A grand light-toned smoky that has been a favorite for many years. Smooth 
rosy-grey with some tan or salmon tints and a creamy throat. 8-10 open on 
tall, straight willowy spikes. An extra nice smoky. 
THEMESONG (Klein 47) 570—80 
Mallow purple with a cyclamen blotch. Tall straight spike with 7 or more 
slightly hooded florets open. An unusual color. 
TIVOLI (K. & M.) 440—90 
A beautiful warm tone pure pink that opens 8 on a good spike. One of the best 
of the new glads from Europe. A pleasant surprise awaits you when you grow 
Tivoli. 
TRAILS END (Ficht 49) 562-85 
Deep lavender rose with a creamy yellow throat. Has 7-8 extra large frilled 
florets open on a medium spike. Certainly one that rates the word beautiful. 
VENIDA (Milo 47) 460—88 
It is my opinion and also the opinion of many other growers that this is one of 
the most beautiful glads. It is a beautiful rose color shaded with lavender and 
has a big cream blotch. Grows 50 to 60 inches tall with up to 28 buds. 
UHU (K.& M. 46) 482—85 
Unique color. Uhu reminds me of a lobster before cooking. A dusty brown 
which is a fine smoky. Stem is medium tali. Vigorous grower that never crooks. 
Opens 7 well placed florets. This sells itself on sight. 
UNCLE TOM (Salman 49) 554—90 
Striking deep maroon opening 8 on a tall spike. This looks like one of the best 
in the dark shades. Better try this one as | am sure you will like it.
