ets open progressively and will hold 8 or more open with most of the re- 
maining buds showing color. 
Under ordinary field culture the spikes will average 21 buds with a 26” 
flowerhead and a field height of 58”. Foliage is deep green and healthy. 
Margery produces high crowned and healthy bulbs. Bulblets are of aver- 
ae size and germinate easily. Propagation is good. Blooms in about 70 
ays. 
Margery has an outstanding show record. Under average culture and 
with but a limited number of bulbs it won the American Home Achieve- 
ment Award at the Wisconsin Glad Society Show at Two Rivers in 1951. 
Also best single, three spike and basket Seedling Award and Reserve 
Champ at this same show. In addition it won other sinzle, three spike 
and Basket Seedling Awards at other Wisconsin shows. 
Its winnings include four Trophies, 2 N.A.G.C. Medals plus many Ro- 
settes and Blue Ribbons.

RED RADIANCE (450) 
RED RADIANCE is a very bright and clear light red without blotch or mark- 
ings. A self color. It will open 8-10 well placed florets 5” to 542” diameter, 
with 6 buds in color on a spike of 20 or more buds. 
Red Radiance has inherited all the dependability of Red Charm, the seed 
parent, but its color is the brightest real red we have seen in Glads. 
It grows very tall like its other parent Spotlight and like the latter it 
opens extra well in water and it is a good shipper. 
Florets are of smooth velvety texture and do not bruise or crush easily. 
In last year’s catalog we described Red Radiance as having 8 florets open. 
This past season with more large bulbs available we had spikes with an 
even dozen florets open and the lower ones still in good condition. 
Spikes are strong and stand up straight in the field. The plants are wide 
leaved and of medium height, making it an easy cutter. 
The stems on the cut spikes are hard and firm, ideal for floral use. 
In addition to its other good qualities, Red Radiance has the ability to 
make fine tall spikes in hot weather, a quality that is of much value to 
the commercial grower. Red Radiance makes sound healthy bulbs, and 
it is a rapid propagator. Blooms in about 85 days.
