GLADIOLUS 
We are presenting for your consideration twelve of the most valuable gladiolus. 
We raise many varieties and can supply you with most any variety, but these twelve 
are outstanding for beauty and cut flowers. The bulbs we send you are not small 
sized, but range from 1%" to 2". They are also free from thrips. 
HOW TO GROW GLADIOLUS 
In the spring, spade your garden 10 or 12 inches deep and when danger of freezing 
is past, plant the bulbs in rows about 18 or 20 inches apart to admit free and intensive 
cultivation and 6 inches apart in the row, covering it 3 or 4 inches with soil. Be sure 
that the covering soil is mellow. In winter store in a place where they will not dry 
out or freeze.
