THE GLADIOLI. 
Too much cannot be said in favour of this really grand genus, which, by successional plantings, 
may be had in bloom from early in July to Christmas. The Ramosus varieties flower in July and 
August, and may be planted in January, February, and March. The Gandavensis varieties flower in 
August, September, and October, and if successional plantings be continued from March to Midsummer, 
they may be had in bloom even so late as Christmas ; and this is of no small importance where cut 
flowers for vases are in requisition. The late plantings should be made in the reserve flower garden, in 
masses of three to twelve bulbs. When cold weather sots in these should be lifted with the ball of soil, 
potted, or put in boxes, and placed in a cool house, such as a vinery, a cold pit, or in a spare room ; in 
fact, anywhere where they will be protected from the frost j and if attended to with water they will 
blossom as freely as those which had the advantage of being planted earlier in the season. It is 
worthy of remark that the bulbs do not suffer when so treated. 
The great secret of success in growing Gladioli is to plant in a deep soil, well enriched with rotten 
manure , and to water the plants liberally , when necessary , during dry weather,

For beds, masses, centres of large beds, and groups in the flower and shrubbery borders ; and for 
planting amongst Rhododendrons and Azaleas, these are highly recommended.
