Supreme Gladiolus 



Loveliest of summer-blooming bulbous flowers for cutting, and 

 also very effective when used in mixed borders and among shrubbery. 

 Gladiolus are very easy to grow, and, while fertile soil will give best 

 results, they will thrive and bloom in practically any garden soil, 

 if planted in a sunny location. 



Plant any time from mid-April to the 

 end of June; in fact, we advise that 



planting be extended over this entire period, so that a succession of bloom may be had from June 

 until frost. Plant bulbs 4 to 5 inches deep, 6 to 8 inches apart. Cultivate frequently, but not too 

 deeply, during the growing season, and stake when 12 inches high. 



Albatross. Best and largest pure white Gladiolus. Minuet. Has been rated the finest lavender for
