ELMERS ROSE 460—M—A fine new heavily 
ruffled rose opening 7-8 florets of good sub- 
stance. Color is a very rich rose. A vigorous 
grower. Elmers Rose is one of the most 
beautiful of all glads. For me it rates high 
in the top ten most beautiful. It’s a tall 
grower and the deep rose-red throat mark- 
ings set it off just right. It’s hard to spend 
35¢c and buy as much beauty as a medium 
bulb of this glad will bring you. 
Large: 50c each; 10 for $4.00 
Medium: 35c each; 10 for $2.75 
EVANGELINE 540 (Palmer, *48)—M—A tall, 
light rose pink with huge ruffled florets. 
One of the most vigorous, grows over 51- 
6 feet tall and opens 10-12 six-inch florets at 
once. Will make a wonderful commercial 
cut flower when the price is down some. 
Was most beautiful basket at Grants Pass. 
Its a must have when bloomed early or 
during cool weather, but during hot weather 
it isn’t worth anything. 
Large: 25c each; 10 for $1.90 
Medium: 2 for 35c; 10 for $1.25 
EXTREMEST—A sort of a salmon colored 
glad all covered with white veinings. To me 
it looks terrible, but I have seen women 
look at it and rave about its beauty. It’s 
definitely not a man’s glad. I got the stock 
from Holland last year; as for me, I wish 
they had it all back in Holland, but for 
those who like it, go ahead and order! It 
sure is different! 
Large: 35c each; 10 for $2.50 
Medium: 25c each; 10 for $1.90 
FEBRUARY 
Glad planting time in the warmer parts of 
the country. Order glads now for March and 
later planting. I always enjoy sunshine in Feb- 
ruary whenever I can find it. Beef prices 
aren't apt to go any lower, so now is a good 
time to stock your deep freeze or locker. 
FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE 400—M—One of 
the best whites. White Goddess is more ruf- 
fled, though, and seems to do better in 
Southern California, but Florence Nightin- 
gale was better at Sacramento and Grants 
Pass last year. A vigorous grower. A good 
commercial, too. Either one is o.k. 
Large: 2 for 25c; 10 for 90c 
Medium: 3 for 25c; 10 for 65c 
FLYING FORTRESS 580—Mw—One of the 
most popular glads that I have ever ex- 
hibited. Opens 8 huge 6-inch grey florets 
with red blotches in them. However, it often 
grows erratic and is not very dependable. 
Grows over 5 feet tall. If it grows well it 
will be the most popular glad in your 
garden. It is always one of the most popu- 
lar glads at the Los Angeles County Fair. 
Large: 2 for 35c; 10 for $1.35 
Medium: 2 for 25c; 10 for 90c 
FOLKLORE 463 (Butt, “49)—E—A pure pink 
blending to deep orchid rose with a large 
creamy white center. Opens 7 florets at 
once. Was one of the best liked glads that 
1 exhibited this year. A good commercial. 
Large: 35c each; 10 for $2.75 
Medium: 25c each; 10 for $1.90

FRANS HALS—Here is a glad from Holland 
that is different. Deep glowing red with 
purplish orange stripes and flames. Small 
creamy yellow blotch. 
Large: 35c each; 10 for $2.50 
Medium: 25c each; 10 for $1.90 
FROSTY 583—M—Here is a glad that I am 
sure you will want. A glistening salmon 
with a slight smoky line all around the edge 
of the petals and a fiery throat blotch. 
There is a hint of orange in the whole 
thing. Opens 8-10 florets at once. 
Large: 35c each; 10 for $2.50 
Medium: 25c each; 10 for $1.90 
FRIENDSHIP 442 (Fischer, °49)—VE—A beau- 
tiful glad of pure pink with a waxy white 
throat. Florets are very ruffled and well 
placed, opening 8 on a nice spike. A good 
future commercial. 
Large: 2 for 35c; 10 for $1.25 
Medium: 2 for 25c; 10 for 90c 
GEN. EISENHOWER 542 —MW— Opens 8-10 
huge begonia rose blossoms, sometimes 7 
inches across. A very popular variety. A 
strong glad named after a strong man. 
However, this variety will not stand hot 
weather, so plant it early. 
Large: 2 for 25c; 10 for 90c 
Medium: 3 for 25c; 10 for 65c 
GINGER 422—M—A well named glad. A deep 
orange blending into a yellowish throat 
with a deep fiery blotch. Very brilliant. 
Florets are well placed, nicely ruffled and 
of heavy texture. A glad with personality. 
Large: 90c each; Medium: 60c each 
GOLD 412—E—This will probably prove to 
be the outstanding glad. Introduced in 1951. 
Sold at $5.00 per bulb and created a sensa- 
tion among the yellows. A very ruffled, 
deep yellow that will be outstanding as a 
commercial when prices come down a little. 
Very vigorous; a good cut flower, too. 
Large: $1.00 each; Medium: 75c each 
GOLDEN STATE 412 (Wheeler, *42)—L—A 
tall, ruffled deep yellow. Will open 10 flo- 
rets on a 21 bud spike. A good commercial 
as well as exhibition glad. 
Large: 2 for 25c; 10 for 90c 
Medium: 3 for 25c; 10 for 65c 
GORGEOUS DEB 530—M—A very ruffled 
rich salmon with a creamy yellow throat. 
Opens 8 six-inch florets at once. A must 
have for the home garden. The most ruf- 
fled glad listed. You will be thrilled with 
the beauty of Gorgeous Deb when she 
stands in full bloom in your garden. 
Large: 50c each; 10 for $4.00 
Medium: 35c each; 10 for $2.50 
GREAT LAKES 476 (Kuhn, ’46)—M—The pur- 
est blue of any I list. A light blue that is 
quite healthy. It opens 6-7 florets at one 
time. 
Large: 2 for 35c; 10 for $1.25 
Medium: 2 for 25c; 10 for 90c
