<J~ien<)enon 's ^Modern GlaJhlus 
A Select List of Recently Introduced Sorts and the Better Standard Varieties 
The list of named Gladiolus offered on this and the preceding pages comprises our choice in the fields after studying and comparing 
the merits of hundreds of varieties, consideration being given to healthy growth, size, form, coloring and substance of flowers, properly 
spaced and faced on strong, straight, upright spikes, etc. We believe that this selection of up-to-date named Gladiolus is unsurpassable. 
Every precaution is taken to supply clean stock; all of our bulbs are thoroughly cleansed, fumigated, and dipped to destroy 
thrip and other insects. 
" cN.ew L^ra" Group 
OF TEN MODERN GLADIOLUS 
Illustrated in Colors on Opposite Page and Described Below 
Many of our customers frequently ask us to select a list of the ten best Gladiolus and never in our experience have we been in position 
to make a better selection than the group described here and shown in colors on the opposite page. We consider these the ten best not 
only for the garden but also for cutting and for exhibition purposes. The varieties included are among those indicated as favorites, 
and the most popular by the votes of the members of the New England Gladiolus Society. All are prize winners and will be found on exhibi- 
tion in every Gladiolus Show during the coming year. 
We hope our customers will avail themselves of this opportunity to beautify their gardens with this group of outstanding Gladiolus.
