Our Enchanting 
Slipper 
Ylorinias 
(available only in tubers) 
Flowers of the Slipper 
Type Gloxinias are grace- 
fully curved in the trumpet- 
throat like a large Fox- Our Shipper Gloxinia *‘Snow Queen”’ 
glove. They are rapidly 
gaining in popularity be- 
cause of their gracefulness, profusion of blossoms, and long blooming 
period. Individual blossoms are not as large as the regular hybrids, but 
this quality adds much to their charm and daintiness. 
We have been devoting a considerable amount of time to hybridizing 
the Slipper Gloxinias, and although our collection is still limited in scope, 
we believe it to be the most extensive in the world as it includes colors 
that have never been seen before in the slipper type Gloxina.
