EMILY’S BIRTHDAY (324) (Very Early) 
(Seedling x Seedling) 
A fine addition to the few Butterfly varieties we 
now have. This one is ruffled and needle point- 
ed and you will be pleased with the way it makes 
up into arrangements. In color it is apricot salmon 
with a yellow throat dusted with scarlet. 
First let’s explain the rather odd name. The first 
year it bloomed it opened on July 9th and the 
latest date noted in any year is July 15th. July 
9th is Mrs. Emily Butt’s birthday and at that 
time in our district we never ever have any glads 
in bloon¥ from outdoor planting, so this name 
helped identify this exceptionally early glad and 
it has been called that for several years. 
Medium tall spikes, always straight, 16-18 buds, 
7-8 open and several in color, well placed and 
attached. Its strong point is its extreme earliness 
—our first to bloom by far. A good butterfly type.

KERRY DANCER (336) (Early) 
(Bo-Peep x Atom) 
This delightful ruffled Butterfly variety is an 
attractive shade of scarlet with a yellow throat 
dusted with specks of red. Delightful when ar- 
ranged in a bold colored container either by itself 
or combined with other flowers. 
Medium height spikes, always straight and witn 
6-7 of the 15-16 buds open and 5-6 in color. 
Excellent placement and attachment. Florets a- 
bout 31/2” in size, just over the maximum measure- 
ment in the 200 class, so it is very close to being 
a ruffled miniature. 
Bulblets are large, produced freely and germinate 
and grow well. Bulbs are of the golf ball type so 
dear to the hearts of all glad fans and disease 
resistant. Kerry Dancer embodies the spirit of 
grace and rhythm that is typified by the kerry 
dancers immortalized in song and music that is so 
close to all our hearts.
