GLADIOLI SEEDLINGS OF GAAIDAYEIVSIS. 



The following Collection embracesa' the most really valuaWe varieties, and cannot fail to give 

 the greatest satisfaction. 



The following hints on their culture will doubtless be useful to the amateur : — 



Prepare the ground by forking or digging, to the depth of eighteen inches or two feet, adding, 

 as the work proceeds, abundance of well rotted manure. Plant at a depth of three or four inches, 

 and surround each bulb with an inch of clean sand, especially if the soil is stiff or wet. 



In light, well drained soils, the bulbs may be planted as early as the end of March, but on heavy 

 or wet soil, not before the end of April. For successional bloomings, j)lant at intervals of a fortnight 

 or three weeks, the last planting being made early in June, thus a gay display may be maintained 

 from August to November.
