SPECIAL OFFERS ON OUR 1955 INTRODUCTIONS 
It has been the policy of Noweta Gardens to hold the price of its originations down to a minimum by 
growing and testing them one year longer. We try to cull out all the duds. As a result we have built up 
an extensive clientele on our introductions. In fact, the group of offers on this page has become one of the 
most popular features of our entire catalogue. For various reasons some of our offerings this year were 
propagated two years longer and represent an even better buy. 
Our introductions last year, Snowdrift, Pink Diamond, and Fire Opal were voted as among the top five 
1954 Introductions according to the latest N.A.G.C. Symposium. An enviable record indeed! We feel that 
our current originations are just as outstanding and will win a lot of ribbons for you. 
In taking advantage of any of the splendid values offered below, please remember that early orders 
get the preference in bulb sizes. Because of the heavy demand, we often run out of large bulbs. How- 
ever, medium bulbs do give fine bloom also and excel in propagation. We predict that you'll be thrilled 
to bloom these new beauties in your own garden.

“Pink Diamond is far superior to C. D. Fortnam, 
which it resembles very much. Has a richer sheen 
and more ruffling. Grew them side by side so had a 
good chance of comparing them. It is supremely 
beautiful, superior in every way; clean foliage, very 
tall and erect, my favorite of the 6 seedlings. Snow- 
drift is my second choice and believe this will be an 
outstanding white for many years. The ruffling is 
superb, growing habits ideal, also very tall and had 3 
bloom spikes. My last seedling to bloom but well 
worth waiting for. Reminds one of a madonna.” 
—Mrs. Grant Reava, Michigan. 
“Filmer Gove picked it out of twenty other spikes I 
was setting up to ask the name of it. Fire Opal did 
very well.” —Avery Brewer, New York. 
“We thought Pink Diamond the most beautiful pastel 
we ever grew in our garden. It wona blue ribbon for 
us at the Wabash State Show. During the summer 
we had a total of 37 blue ribbons plus 3 rosettes and 
29 seconds—nearly all of these winners coming from 
bulbs purchased from you, so, naturally, we are very 
well satisfied.” —Mrs. F. A. Dahl, Indiana.

“All the superlatives and accolades I echo; and 
would add more, but, words failing me, can only state 
simply that for me, (as for so many others), Pink 
Diamond was the most beautiful gladiolus that I (or 
they) had even seen. And that, though stated simply, 
is no simple statement. 
.... It may be that with Pink Diamond you have 
reached the ultimate-absolute in beauty.” 
—Jack Cutcher, Tennessee. 
“Your Snowdrift and Pink Diamond in our 1953 
Trials were something! They had everything—excel- 
lent color, wonderful placement, perfect facing and 
spacing, ramrod stems, healthy foliage, beauty and ap- 
peal, etc., etc. Glads of this calibre are apt to give 
judges stomach ulcers. Ha! Ha! It is difficult some- 
times, to demerit them in any category, when they are 
so near perfection. I notice that these two glads are 
proving that our judgment was merited.” 
—Roy W. Barber, Rhode Island. 
“Fire Opal makes a great spike here and very uni- 
form; it will certainly go to town with those that like 
the color.” —J. P. Wood, Washington.
