Kunderd's Gladioli 



are now so well known and are in such great demand that you, 

 as a grower or florist, cannot afford to be without them. No 

 other strains are now so popular, nor can you secure so many 

 beautiful blooms from any other. They always bring top prices 

 in the markets. 



Heretofore there has not been a sufficient supply to afford growers a 

 share in their great sale. 



/ offer you a 

 Chance this Year 



for the first time to secure a select collection of about 

 ninety choice varieties listed and described in my 

 wholesale price list. All authorities are agreed that my 

 new strains represent by far the greatest improvement in 

 gladioli today. 



You will miss many of your best customers if you let 

 them go elsewhere for their cut flowers and bulbs. 

 Send for my wholesale list above described, and also a 

 copy of my new retail catalogue, both free.
