The Most Charming Flower in Cultivation, Stately and Attractive—Easy of Culture / 
“To know them is to love them.” Evefy yard should have at least a few choice Gladiolus. They suc¬ 
ceed nicely in any good fertile garden soil. Plant as.early in the spring as ground can be worked and for 
succession of bloom set at intervals of two weeks. Bulbs set six inches deep require a few more days to 
come up, but more than repay you for waiting, as they form a deep root system, retaining moisture Which 
furnishes more stalk growth and larger and more perfect flowers. Set in rows of solid beds eight to ten 
inches apart, to allow for cultivating, which should be done at least once a week. Water freely, if pos¬ 
sible, this insures more continuous flowering. Lift the bulbs in the fall, dry thoroughly, and store in dry, 
warm place until spring again. These multiply in the ground and you can separate the small seedlings 
from the mother plant, grow them on the following year and in that way increase your supply. Our list 
of named varieties comprises the best standard reliable sorts that we recommend will please you. All 
good healthy well propagated bulbs that we guarantee will produce large spikes of beautiful flowers.
