PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK— SUPERIOR BULBS— WHOLESALE. 



HENDERSON'S "UP-TO-DATE" VARIETIES OF NAMED GLADIOLUS. 



This list of named Gladiolus 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 there- 

 fore believe that this selection of up-to-date named Gladiolus is unsurpassable, containing as it does the best of Childsii, Gandavensis, Groff's, Lemoine's 

 and Hybrid Sections. All old "runout" inferior and "too- near-alike" varieties have been eliminated. A fair sized collection of these modern Gladiolus will afford 

 a continuous succession of delightful surprises to the grower. 



NOTE. — The Section or Type to which the varieties belong is indicated by the letters (C) for Childsii, (G) for Gandavensis, (Gf) for Groff's, (H) for Hybrid, 

 (L) for Lemoine's. 



The earliness or lateness of varieties is indicated by the succeeding numbers, 10, 11, 12, etc. Those marked "10" bloom in ten weeks (67 to 73 days) from 

 bulb planting. Those marked "12" bloom in twelve weeks (81 to 87 days.) Those marked "14" bloom in fourteen weeks (95 to 101 days). Those marked 

 "16" bloom in sixteen weeks (109 to 115 days), etc.
