Everybody's Flower— The Gladiolus 



I call it everybody's flower because it is the one flower 1 know will grow for everybody and because everybody 

 who grows it loves it so. It will grow for you just as readily as it will grow for me. It asks no favors — just to be 

 given a chance to show what it can do. It has no exacting soil requirements. It is sturdy, vigorous, independent. 

 It will adapt itself to conditions as it finds tbem and will glorify a King's Garden or the humblest dooryard. 



/ Ask You to Give It a Trial Because I Want You to Love It Too 



It is not solely because I am in the business of growing it. Just pure love of this beautiful flower is the reason I am 

 today the leading gladiolus specialist of America. I began as an amateur, with no thought of growing the gladiolus commer- 

 cially. It 'won first my interest, for there is no more 

 interesting flower in the world ; then my love. It is 

 so royal yet democratic. If you have never grown it 

 let me introduce it to you through one of my special 

 collections. There isn't room to tell you about them 

 here, but 



MY NEW CATALOG WILL DELIGHT YOU 



It will tell you all about these collections and the 

 very best named varieties of over 25,000 which I have 

 grown. It is exquisitely illustrated in natural colors and 

 tellswhyl love the gladiolus and why I am sure youwill. 

 It tells just how the famous Cowee gladiolus bulbs are 

 grown and how from them you can grow just such 

 wonderful flowers as I grow, and how you may have 

 them in your garden from July until well into Sept- 

 ember. You will enjoy reading this little book. 

 Drop me a card today and I will send it at once.
