GLADIOLUS. 
For the garden or greenhouse in winter, the early flowering Gladioli are very desirable. 
They force readily, and many thousands of the varieties Colvilli alba and Colvilli are grown 
by florists annually for bouquet work. Out-of-doors they bloom in June or early in July. They 
should be set out in the fall in dry soil, and protected during winter with a covering of eight 
inches of straw or leaves.
