DEEP SALMON—232 Series 
533 BOLDFACE (Evans ’47) M. Color 
is brilliant and very attractive. Very 
deep salmon pink with an almost black 
red brush on clean white throat, very 
spectacularly blotched. Ruffled florets 
that run a bit over 514 inches. Opens 
up to 8 in field, 9-11 when cut, 20-21 
buds. Plant growth is vigorous and 
foliage stands 30-36 inches high, 
height 66 inches. Florets well attached, 
make uniform, double row placement. 
Propagation is good. 
Even before dropping into the reason- 
able price range this spectacular glad 
has achieved world wide fame and 
is listed in British and Australian 
catalogs. Has won the American Home 
Achievement Medal, three Awards of 
Merit, 8 grand champs we know of, 
numberless firsts, section and division 
champs, topping most all symposiums 
and ratings for Exh. in deep salmon 
series. 
Grown widely for cut flowers and a 
“sell-out” in L and M sizes for years. 
We hope our L bulb supply will equal 
demand. 
Vv ratings AA (one of the 14 to date) 
and 92, top color rating for deep sal- 
mon, all sizes. 92-AA-A.

533 BROADWAY MELODY (K & M) 
(our ’52 import release) M. Medium- 
deep salmon pink with metallic sheen

soft creamy yellow throat. Immense, 
strong plants, very tall, ably support- 
ing “whopper” spikes. Wide petalled 
florets ranging to 614 inches, 7-8 open 
with still more in color. At Vv _ best 
spike in field was 7-10-9-26. Has ele- 
gance, fine placement and attachment. 
Spike from medium bulbs had 20 or 
fore buds, almost as stupendous as 
BOLDFACE 
those from large bulbs. Good, healthy 
propagation.
