THE 
GLADIOLUS 
The Gladiolus is one of the most desirable of Summer Flowers The blooms are of the greatest brilliancy 
and diversity of color, and cost less money for the display from July to October (by ^laking successive plant- 
ings) than any other Flowering Bulb. Plant 6 inches deep in rich soil, any time in May. Take the Bulbs up 
in October and store over winter in a cool dry cellar. A bed of a hundred or more is a grand sight. Our 
Mixed Gladioli are all first size bulbs, and will flower well the first season.
