Complied and Published by NORTH AMERICAN GLADIOLUS COUNCIL A Selected List of Gladiolus Cultivars Classified for Show Purposes 2021 NAGC GLADIOLUS CLASSIFICATION COMMITTEE James Otto-Chairman, 302 Sandpiper Court, Delano, MN 55328 (763) 972-2426, [email protected] Committee: Cliff Hartline, Sue Jackson, Dave Kollasch, Burton Scripture, Donald Selinger, Reg Powys-Lybbe, Lew Wallace, Karin McDougall, John Alleman, Lyle Madeson and John Meyer CLASSIFICATION LIST FOR A MORE COMPLETE LIST GO TO GLADWORLD.ORG/Classification Web Version Note: A seedling is any cultivar that has not been previously introduced by offering it for sale. The Classification List includes no seedlings even though they may have been named and registered with the North American Gladiolus Registry. A Recent Introduction is any cultivar introduced within the last five years with a termination of its showing in this category based upon its period of availability for purchase and growth by the North American buying public. KEY TO CULTIVAR LISTS Size and color classes are indicated by the code number. The first digit indicates the floret size group: the last two digits represent the color class. Originator’s name follows, and then the year the cultivar was first available at North American purchasers. Followed by a rough approximation of the blooming season. VE (Very Early) – under 70 days E (Early) – 70-74 days EM (Early Midseason) – 75-79 days M (Midseason) – 80-84 days LM (Late Midseason) – 85-90 days L (Late) – 91-99 days VL (Very Late) – 100 days or more These dates are for large corms. Smaller size corms will bloom somewhat later. Size Classification: Miniature 100 Florets under 2 ½ inches Small 200 Florets 2 ½ but less than 3 ½ inches Medium 300 Florets 3 ½ but less than 4 ½ inches Large 400 Florets 4 ½ but less than 5 ½ inches Giant 500 Florets 5 ½ inches and larger Size is measured across the widest part of the first floret after the inflorescence is fully opened. Color Classification: Color Pale Light Medium Deep Other White 00 Green 02 04 06 Cream 10 Yellow 12 14 16 Buff 20 Orange 22 24 26 Salmon 30 32 34 36 Pink 40 42 44 46 Red 52 54 56 58 Black Red Rose 60 62 64 66 68 Black Rose Lavender 70 72 74 76 78 Purple Blue 80 82 84 86 88 Violet Tan/Brown 90 92 94 98 Brown Grey 96 Classification numbers ending in an odd digit (1,3,5,7,9) indicate “with conspicuous markings” for the color indicated by the even number immediately preceding the odd number. Where reduction of the number of color classes is desirable, the objective may be obtained by combining closely related color classes. Classification example: 375 = medium sized (300) floret, major color is medium lavender with a conspicuous marking (e.g. white throat, darker blotch, prominent edging (picotee) or combination) Classification Number, Name of Cultivar, Originator, Year of intro, bloom time 401 A VOT I YA! <and here I am> Krasheninnikov 2009 L 401 A.
