Dreer's Gold Medal Gladiolus 



Our Gold Medal Blends are made up entirely of 

 named sorts, grown separately, and blended according 

 to a carefully considered formula, so that there may 

 be a proper balance of the various colorings and shad- 

 ings. We know from experience that it is practically 

 impossible to grow Gladiolus in mixture and have them 

 give satisfaction to our customers. Such mixtures soon 

 become loaded with less desirable but rapidly propa- 

 gating sorts and the whole color scheme is thereby 

 thrown out of balance. 



In our blends we use only the finest named kinds 

 and no variety enters into them that Is not large 

 flowering and of attractive color. Good texture, 

 strong spike and artistic placement of the blooms are 

 requirements oC the greatest importance. All are sorts 

 that are well worth growing individually. 



Section One. The range of coloring extends from rich 

 rose, through old rose, rose ash, orange-scarlet, and 

 bright red. to deep crimson and velvety maroon. 30c 

 per doz.; $2.00 per 100; $17.50 per 1000. 



Section Two. From palest blush to warm deep pink 

 and soft rose, from cream and primrose to citron 

 yellow and salmon-orange, together with snowy and 

 tinted whites and other sorts splashed or stained 

 with deeper blending shades. The colorings of our 

 Gold Medal Section 2 Blend always carry a strong 

 appeal. 30c per doz.; $2.00 per 100; $17.50 per 1000. 



Section Three, Pale lavender, deep blue, lilac, heliotrope, 

 amaranth, and velvety royal purple — all of the rich 

 "Pansy" shades have been garnered for this blend. 

 35c per doz.; $2.50 per 100; $20.00 per 1000. 



All Sections Mixed. An actual mixing in due proportion 

 of bulbs from the three numbered blends. If you 

 want all of the possible worthwhile Gladiolus color- 

 ings, you should flnd them here. 30c per doz.; $2.00 

 per 10"0; $17.50 per 1000. 



Primulinus Hybrid Gladiolus 



These are most attractive, easj' to grow, and sure 

 to bloom. They lend themselves particularly well to 

 interesting decorative effects and soft color harmonies. 



In hot, dry locations, where other varieties would 

 burn out, they will still give a wealth of flowers, but 

 naturally they respond, like all Gladiolus, to high culti- 

 vation and favoring environment. The color range runs 

 from primrose to rich orange, apricot, and crimson, 

 but there will be shades of pink and rose as well, to- 

 gether with rare coppery hues. We offer a mixture of 

 named varieties, grown separately, and blended to give 

 a proper color balance. 25c per doz.; $1.75 per 100; 

 $15.00 per 1000.
