BENJAMIN BRITTEN (K&M 49) 80 days 368 
Tall vigorous spikes of deep lavendar, almost going into the purple 
side, with a white pencil mark on the lip petals. Tall vigorous spikes, 
about six open and a good commercial. Could have a better throat 
marking, but otherwise, quite nice.

BETTY BRIGHT (Pazderski 53) 80 days 401 
(Corona x Elizabeth the Queen) One of the outstanding performers 
for us this year—a hot very dry one. 18-20 bud spikes were common 
and spikes up to 25 buds were not unusual. Flowerheads 28” to 32” 
seemed to be average. Spikes are very husky, tall, straight and well 
balanced. The color is basically white, with a cream lip and a rose 
marking on the lip. Placement of the florets is excellent, spacing and 
attachment unsurpassed. Bulbs are large, clean and make lots of 
medium sized bulblets which germinate nicely. Lots of florescence; 
its easy propagation, its ability to stand hot weather—dry weather; 
gives Betty Bright the makings of an excellent commercial. 
Betty Bright swept the Pennsylvania State show at Grove City 
in 1954, taking Grand Champion, Three Spike Champion and best 
vase. Florists like Betty Bright very much.

BETTY DUNCAN (Benedict 49) 85 days 422 
One of the nicest of the newer orange colored glads, and one that 
does not sunburn. A clear orange color, with a clean golden throat, 
one that will hold six to eight open on tall willowy stems, plenty 
strong enough to support the large flower head.

BLACK OPAL (Errey 36) 92 days 354 
While you are waiting for Negus to get down in price, why not use 
Black Opal. Given a little care, Black Opal will hold up to eight 
open on tall husky straight spikes. Florets are round, dark red, and 
somewhat plain. Quite a show winner and a good commercial. Does 
particularly well if given a little extra moisture.
