GROWING GLADIOLI. 



The gladiolus is fast becoming recog- 

 nized as the most universally adaptable 

 and useful of all summer flowers for the 

 florist. Its possibilities, not only for 

 outdoor growing but for greenhouse use, 

 are almost unlimited and are just begin- 

 ning to be realized. 



Gladioli should not be planted too 

 deeply, as their roots are less liable to 

 feed in the soil which is above the 

 bulb level; in shallow soils this is im- 

 portant. Deep plowing or spading of 

 soils is desirable, but must be done with 

 reference to the depth of the surface 

 soil, as deep spading of shallow soils 

 would bring to the surface too much of 

 the bottom soil. The best covering 

 above the corms is about four inches of 

 soil. Mellow loam or sandy soil is 

 better adapted to somewhat deeper 

 plantings than is a clay or heavy soil. 



By successive plantings from early 

 gartlcn-making time until late in June, 

 then following with plantings in the 

 greenhouse from about August 10 until 

 the following March, one may have 

 blooms almost all the year aroiand. A 

 night temperature of 50 to 54 degrees 

 makes for success with gladioli, but 

 they can also be grown in a tempera- 

 ture 5 or 10 degrees less than this. 



Some gladioli have bulbs more 

 rounded than others; the natural prefer- 

 once would be for the rounded bulbs, 

 but it does not make much difference 

 whether they are flat or rounded, pro- 

 vided they are well matured. It would 

 be advisable to remove the old bulbs 

 from the bases of the gladioli. It is not
