GLADIOLUS. 
The Gladiolus is the most beautiful of the tender 
summer-flowering bulbs. Its spikes are of all desirable 
colors; some are two feet in height. If cut when the 
lower flowers only are open, they will remain in good 
order, opening fully, for several weeks. By planting 
the bulbs at intervals of two weeks from April to July 
a grand succession of bloom can be had until hard 
frosts. After frost lift the bulbs and store them in a dry 
cellar. Our Gladioluses elicited the admiration of all 
visitors last summer. We offer a mixture of 200 va- 
rieties raised mostly from seed, hardly any two alike. 
All the dull shades were culled out when they were in 
bloom. Price of mixed bulbs, 2 inches in diameter, 8 
cents each, 65 cents per doz.; fine large bulbs, 5 cents 
each, 50 cents per doz. 
GERANIUnS. 
The hot Southern sun is too severe for many plants 
that are beautiful in Northern and Western cities, and 
frequent drouths bar out many more, but Geraniums 
endure sun and drouth, and upon the return of cooler 
days and heavy dews they grow and bloom as if there 
had never been weather of any sort but their own 
choosing. It matters not what the temperature, Ger- 
aniums are always growing, always green, and crowned 
with flowers from May until November. Perhaps in no 
other class of plants has the march of improvement
