GLADIOLUS. — Splendid French Hybrids. 
Of summer blooming plants, for general garden decoration, the Gladiolus is deserving of 
special attention. Requiring but little room for growth, they are exceedingly useful for filling 
up vacant places in the borders; while for massing in large beds, where a brilliant and effec- 
tive display is desired, they are invaluable. The splendid Frencli Hybrids are conceded by 
critical florists to excel all others in diversity and richness of coloring, as also in beauty and 
form of flowers. We offer true French grown roots of our own importation, in mixtures of 
colors ; in mixtures of special shades ; and in tiatned varieties of special colors.
