MISS ELLA V. BAINES, The Woman Florist, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 



GLADIOLI 



/"T"AHE most popular, easy growing flower of the garden, not "touchy" about soil or conditions, but respond- 

 ing fine to good soil and location by an increase in size and color of flowers. This grand flower is so 

 nearly hardy that they can be planted in March for early bloom and allowed to remain in ground till 

 matured in fall. Plant them by the dozens or hundreds ; mix them in your perennial beds ; they will bloom 

 when perennials have finished. Our list is complete and the descriptions have been "boiled down" to give you 

 a mind picture of just how the flower looks. The riot of colors in some of the gorgeous flowers is hard to 

 describe and space will not permit of the necessary adjectives. The bulbs have made a fine growth this season 

 and we are sure you will have good results if order is placed with headquarters for your wants. Our bulbs 

 have never been used for cut flowers, which insures you all the vitality that could be stored up in a bulb by 

 having its foliage to assist perfect development.
