From Birchville Gardens 
ROSY VEIL 
(Magnuson ‘55) 
From a new hybridizer comes this wonderful commercial and exhibition 
glad. The color is a medium rose with an attractive red throat that is not too 
conspicuous. Opens 8 florets with 6 or more showing color on a 20-22 bud 
spike. Florets are ruffled with very good substance and attachment and are 
perfectly placed. It is a wonderful grower of good cutting spikes. From what 
we have seen of Rosy Veil it is a rosy Spic & Span, but I sincerely believe this 
is a better grower. Here is a glad with every good quality you could demand 
of a glad either commercial or exhibition — color, texture, form, health and 
excellent propagation. A wonderful cut-flower prospect. 
Any size, each $2.00 6 for $10.00 
IL, 1M, 15S, 10 Blbts. $6.00. 
JIM’S DELIGHT 
(Milo 55) 
Reds may come, reds may go, but we predict Jim’s Delight is here to stay!! 
Here is a real fine variety that we found in some stock of Pactolus we bought 
from Holland 5 years ago. It is a beautiful sanguine red, similar to Red Charm. 
The real beauty of this flower lies in its irridescent quality. The depth of the 
red changes as you look at it from different angles. Surprisingly enough, you 
can even see a bronze effect at certain angles. We honestly believe that Jim’s 
Delight will become one of the greatest reds of all time. It is a wonderful 
grower. It makes spikes up to 60 inches. Opens 6-8 on a 20 bud spike. Florets 
are firmly attached and well-placed. Propagation is very good. 
It his been voted most popular variety and most beautiful basket in show. 
It certainly is an easy winner in its class. A good supply sets the price where 
you can afford to get a start in this really outstanding glad. BE SURE TO TRY 
JIM’S DELIGHT.

AFTERGLOW 
(Harris 55) 516-80 
An enchanting light apricot somewhat like Patrol, without other markings. 
This grows much better than Patrol, however. It is an ideal commercial with 
show qualities as well. It consistently makes five-foot spikes that are always 
straight. Opens 7-8 slightly ruffled florets of 51/2 inch size on a 20-22 bud spike. 
A good propagator and grower with healthy plants and bulbs. 
We believe the master hybridzer Jack Harris has given us a glad that is a 
step ahead in its class. Our florists gave Afterglow a royal welcome this past 
season and I am sure you, too, will welcome Afterglow to your list of fine glads.
