PRIMULINUS Ml^BRIOS 



The original of this type, introduced from South Africa, has 

 been wonderfully improved in the last few years by crossing 

 with choice garden varieties; they are quite distinct from the 

 usual run of Gladioli, being of more slender growth, the 

 orchid like flowers set airily on the slender yet strong spikes, 

 the range of colors is brilliant and beautiful and planted in 

 fair sized groups in the garden make a very showy display, 

 but it is as cut flowers that their grace and wonderful color- 

 ings show to best advantage. We offer six choice named 

 sorts as well as a splendid mixture. 

 Apricot. An attractive apricot yellow. 

 Fire Queen. Fiery orange-vermilion with yellow throat. 

 L'Unique. A wonderful combination of bronze and orange 



yellow. J

GLADIOLUS in Mixture 



Our mixtures offered below are made up of fine varieties, 

 not the common sorts, which produce themselves so freely, 

 and are all strictly selected first size bulbs, and are sure 

 lo give satisfactory results. 



GOED MEDAE GEABIOEUS 



We grow this magnificent strain for the express purpose of 

 being able to supply many of our customers who want some- 

 thing decidedly better than the usual run of mixtures and who 

 do not care for the named sorts. When Gladiolus are grown in 

 mixture they are liable to deteriorate, and finally contain only 

 a few colors. To avoid this we grow small blocks of a large 

 number of exquisite colors, many of them high-priced sorts, 

 from which these mixtures are made, which insures results 

 which cannot be had in any other way, and if you wish somc- 



I thing really extra fine, these are sure to please you.
