GOLD (412) Marshall 1951 (80) 
The rich, gorgeous yellow that you have heard so much 
about. Whether a cutflower grower or home gardener you'll 
love Gold. It opens 7 neatly ruffled florets of perfect at- 
tachment, substance, texture. It grows tall and vigorously 
but seldom makes over 17 buds; usually 14. It opens to 
the tip when cut tight and is being stocked heavily by 
Southern cutflower growers. 
told me that several million bulbs of Gold could be sold 
to growers in Florida when its down to commercial prices. 
It is an average producer of very large bulblets, most of 
which make salable blooms. I have never seen a diseased 
bulb of Gold and it sets a high standard for health and 
vigor.
