Dreer's Gladioli 

 Gold Medal Mixtures 



We have these in three distinct color sections, and 

 also in a general blend of all the colors together. 

 They are not merely surplus lots thrown together, nor 

 are they bulbs that have been grown in mixture, a 

 practice that soon leads to an excessive proportion 

 of a few of the more prolific sorts. Our Gold Medal 

 Mixtures are made up of highest quality, large flower- 

 ing named varieties, blended to give a proper balance 

 of the various shades and yet cover the full color 

 range of each section. 



We oifer only selected first size stock, no "seconds," 

 for we believe the larger sized bulbs will give more 

 complete satisfaction, whether handled for forcing or 

 grown out-of-doors.
