SWEET PEAS 



GRANDIFLORA 



SWEET PEAS should be sown in drills latter part of November for fall 

 planting, or as early as possible in spring, in rich, friable soil. Prepare 

 the bed thoroughly, working in a quantity of well-rotted manure, if it can 

 be done, making a furrow four to six inches deep. In this sow the seed 

 and cover two inches deep. As soon as the plants begin to show through, 

 fill in the furrow. This will secure a deep planting without the bad effect 

 of deep covering of the seed at first, and so enable the plant to bloom con- 

 tinuously through the heat of summer. As fast as* the flowers come into 

 full bloom or fade they should be cut off, for if the pods are allowed to 

 form the plants will stop blooming.

GLADIOLUS. 



BULBS FOR SPRING 

 PLANTING 



GLADIOLUS 



GLADIOLUS are the most 

 attractive and useful for cut 

 flowers of all summer-flowering 

 bulbs. Use any good soil, hoe 

 and loosen it to keep down the 

 weeds, and with ordinary rain- 

 falls they will flower by July 1. 

 Plant at 10-day intervals for 

 succession of blooms from July 

 to October. In cutting Gladioli 

 for the house, it is best to cut 

 the spikes as soon as the first 

 one or two lower flowers are 

 open. The remainder will open 

 in the house. 



AMERICA — This is one of the 



finest Gladioli ever produced,

 cutting, as well as all-around

 and texture resembling those 

 of the Orchid. Each, 6c; dozen,
