E. SHEPPARD & SONS’ CATALOGUE OF PLANTS. 
GLOXINIAS. 
Of these magnificent summer-blooming plants, we have a splendid collection, 
both of upright and pendant varieties. They are well worthy of a place in every 
collection. Price, 50 cts. each ; $3.00 to $4.00 per dozen. 
GLADIOLUS. 
No plant blooms so freely with little or no care as the Gladiolus. The varieties 
are now so numerous, and many of them so much resembling each other, that we 
do not give a descriptive list of varieties ; no garden, however small, should be 
without them. We offer, this season, a choice collection of seedlings, surpassing 
many of the named varieties in beauty, and at one-half the price. Price — Named 
varieties, 25 to 50 cts. each; $3.00 per dozen. Seedlings, 15 cts. each ; gi.50 per 
doz.en; $5.00 per hundred.
