HALLAWELL SEED CO 
BULBS 
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF 
GLADIOLUS 
The bulbs should be planted about 4 inches deep and 7 or 
8 inches apart. Any good garden soil will make strong 
plants and good bloom, but a light application of any well 
decayed manure or good commercial fertilizer applied on the 
top of the ground after the plants are several inches high 
will aid in producing larger blooms. Keep the ground moist 
until the flower spikes begin to appear, then water freely. 
The bulbs should be taken up in the fall, after the leaves 
have become yellow, and then stored in a cool, dry place, 
free from frost. From December to April are the months to 
plant gladiolus.
