THE FIRST ALL AMERICAN SELECTION 
Last year | promised you that our first All American 
Gladiolus Selection would be ready to introduce in 1955. 
However surveys to anticipate the demand proved that 
stock was too short and that another year of propagation 
will be required. This first selection is a real beauty, 
worth waiting for and you will find it featured in my 
next year’s catalogue, and the price will be moderate, 
indeed.

NEW CUSTOMER SPECIAL 
As I have thousands of names on my 
mailing list who have never sent an 
order, I have planned this collection, 
one which you just can’t afford to miss! 
An extra choice selection, in a wide 
color range, which will give you just 
about the best start you can make for 
a beautiful colorful garden of glads. 
Two large bulbs each “of: Bridal 
Orchid, Wards Burma, Florence Night- 
ingale, Leah Gorham, Mt. Index, Ori- 
ental Pearl, Palette and Spic and Span. 
One large bulb each of Black Cherry, 
30ise Belle, Chinook, Cynthia, Gati- 
neau, Gold, King David, Pennant and 
Sierra Snow. A total of 25 fine bulbs 
of very fine varieties: 
$4.65 value for $3.50 
NOTE 
As shipping costs take much of the 
profit on small orders, I will make the 
same offer as last year. If you will add 
50c to your total order, I will include 
$1.00 worth of bulbs, outstanding varie- 
ties. Most orders received last year took 
advantage of this offer.
