To all lovers of Gladioli, we extend a cordial 
invitation to visit our fields during the 
blooming season. We are growing 250 
varieties of Gladioli. Many of them 
were imported from France before the 
quarantine, and varieties which we think 
you will find in no other collection than 
ours. The season generally begins about 
July 15th and continues until frost.
