Gladiolus, Gold Medal Hybrids 



DREER'S SUPERB 



GENERAL MIXTURE 



This is our popular low-priced mixture, and is composed of 

 fine sorts, in all colors, in first size bulbs only. We have tested 

 many brands of mixtures, some of them costing twice as much 

 as this, but have never seen any except our Gold Medal Mixture 

 which surpassed it in variety of coloring or general excellence, and, 

 whether wanted for planting for effect or for cutting, will be found 

 entirely satisfactory. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.00 per 100; $27.50 

 per 1000. 



LEMOINE'S BUTTERFLY 



HYBRIDS MIXED 



The remarkable richness of the colorings of this class rivals the 

 finest orchids. 65 cts. per doz.; $4.50 per 100; $40.00 per 1000. 



NEW GIANT (Nanceanus) 



A magnificent race of extraordinary size and remarkable 

 beauty, possessing the long-lasting properties and the beautiful 

 markings of the Lemoine section. Mixed varieties, 65 cts. per 

 doz.; $4.50 per 100; $40.00 per 1000. 



PRIMULINUS HYBRIDS 



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 colorings 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. 

 Orange Brilliant. Brilliant orange, very rich. 

 Queen Victoria. Glittering bright pink, throat silvery rose. 

 Violet Queen. Rich velvety violet. 

 Price. Any of the above 15 cts. each; $1.50 per doz.; $12.00 



per 100; 3 each of the 6 sorts for $2.25; 6 each of the 6 sorts for 



$4.25. 

 Mixed Primulinus Hybrids. This mixture is certain to 



produce some beautiful flowers mostly in tones running from 



light yellow to orange, apricot and crimson. 60 cts. per doz.; 



$4.00 per 100; $35.00 per 1000. 



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 to give satis- 

 factory results. 



GOLD MEDAL GLADIOLUS 



We grow this magnificent strain for the express purpose of 

 being able to supply many of our customers who want something 

 decidedly better than the usual run of mixtures and who do not 

 care for the named sorts. When Gladiolus are grown in mi.xture 

 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 something really extra fine, these are sure to 

 please you.

 blood-red, garnet, amaranth, and similar rich shades of color in

 Gold Medal Section No. 2. This is composed of the white, 

 yellow, and delicate shades of pink, rose, etc., and is especially 

 valuable for cutting. 7 cts. each; 75 cts. per doz.; $5.00 per 100. 



Gold Medal Mixture. This contains some each of the above 

 and so great is the diversity in colors that customers run prac- 

 tically no risk of getting any two alike; by far the finest mixture 

 of Gladioli ever offered. 7 cts. each; 75 cts. per doz.; $5.00 

 per 100; $45.00 per 1000.
