Large 2 for .25; 10 for $1.00 
Small 10 for .35 
ABIGAIL (Myers 44) 466-75 
An early lavender resembling Minuet in color. 
Opens 8 well-placed florets on a tall spike. A good 
increaser and one of the best cut-flower lavenders 
on the market today. 
ALICE AYER (Benidict 47) 400-90 
A large white with a sixty-inch spike. It has a 
flowerhead that opens 7 well-placed 5 inch blooms 
that are well attached. This can take all kinds of 
weather. It should be better known. 
ANTIETAM (Synder 48) 454-90 
A beautiful, deep, glistening red with a velvet ap- 
pearance. Opens eight well-attached 4% inch florets 
on a 20 bud, 25 inch flowerhead. All remaining 
buds show color. 
ARANJUEZ (K & M 48) 522-90 
A strikingly clear orange with a cream throat. Pro- 
duces a tall, straight spike with 6 wide open florets. 
We would recommend your trying this outstanding 
glad that has been overlooked by most. 
ARC DE TRIOMPHE (Europe 52) 410-95 
A light yellow with a deeper yellow throat. Opens 
8-10 perfectly placed florets that are well-attached. 
This should become one of the very best for com- 
mercial use and can also win its share of ribbons. 
ARIADNE (Mitsh 37) 401-86 
A creamy-white with a striking red blotch. This is 
one of the oldest glads in our catalog and it is a 
real beauty. 
ATATURK (Salman 51) 354-75 
A very deep black-red with velvety glow—almost 
black in full sunlight. It is certainly one of the best 
in this color. It grows tall with 6 open florets. 
Visitors to our gardens like this one. 
AUREOLE (Pruitt 49) 410-80 
A beautiful light yellow which opens 6 to 8 heavily 
ruffled well-placed florets on a tall 16 to 20 bud 
spike. A nice cut-flower that should be very popular. 
BENARES (K & M 52) 543-85 
One of the pleasant surprises of the past few sea- 
sons. Clear deep pink with carmine throat feathers. 
Opens 6-8 firmly attached large florets on a tall 
spike. It is one of our best for shows and cut-flowers. 
Medium 3 for .25; 10 for .65 
Bulblets .25 per pkg. 
BETTY DUNCAN (Benedict 49) 422-85 
A clear orange with golden throat. Tall, willowy 
stem with 6-8 open on a nice head. Certainly one 
of the best orange glads. 
BLUE BEAUTY (Pfitzer 36) 476-75 
One of the best blues for both show and commercial 
use. A tall, strong grower that is very early. 
BOCCHERINI (K&M 50) 423-75 
Beautiful salmon-orange that is one of the finest 
new varieties. Large, wide open florets are excellent- 
ly placed and firmly attached to a tall, strong stem. 
BOUTON D’OR (DeBruyn 50) 412-80 
A very deep yellow that opens 8-10 ruffled blooms 
on a tall spike. Has won many prizes during the 
past three seasons and is becoming very popular. 
BRIDAL ORCHID (Carlson 50) 566-85 
A vigorous pastel lavender that opens up to 10 on 
a 22-24 bud flowerhead. This is a heavy show 
winner but flecks badly at least 80% of the time in 
our gardens. 
BRIDESMAID (Wheeler 45) 540-80 
A large pink with a cream throat. It has 6-inch 
florets firmly attached to good spikes. It is becom- 
ing a very good commercial variety. 
BUCKEYE BRONZE (Wilson 40) 490-90 
A very popular and outstanding bronze with orange 
shading. Has outsold all other novelties. It opens 
6 to 8 ona good spike. 
BURMA (Palmer 43) 564-88 
A very deep rose-red with 6 wide open blooms that 
are very heavily ruffled. This past season it won 
at most of the large shows. In my opinion it is 
getting better each season. 
CARNIVAL (Butt 47) 437-85 
A bright scarlet with clear white throat. It has 
straight tall spikes with 10 open florets. Blooms 
are well-placed on an 18 bud spike. One of the 
best blotched varieties. 
CHAMOUNY (Baerman 38) 462-85 
A cerise-rose with a silver edge on all petals. Opens 
10 on a long flowerhead. Because of its very dis- 
tinctive color it is a wonderful cut-flower and always 
in demand by the florists.
