GLADIOLI 



Gladioli are among the most jjopiilar of tlie j,'ar(len 

 plants and are easy of culture, t untinuoas elici t 

 with these can be had by successi\x" plantings, begin- 

 ning as soon as the ground is in condition to work in 

 the spring and continuing at intervals until June. For 

 mass effects planting in beds is advisable, but when 

 grown for cutting, single rows 12 inches apart, and 

 the buUis from > to 4 inches apart in the rows, will give 

 satisfaction. .A soil that is medium light will give good 

 resr'ts. The bulljs may be wintered in a cellar that is 

 kept above frost, much as potatoes are stored, and will 

 flower in successive seasons.
