Mr. W. H. Phipps. 
The “Glad” is the flower for the millions—so 
hardy and easy to grow as well as beautiful. Their 
brilliant blooms, borne on tall, stately spikes, make 
a wonderful display in the late summer garden, and 
they are superb in bouquets, lasting a long time. 
Plant Gladiolus bulbs 4 to 6 inches deep in good 
growing soil, and keep them free from weeds. You 
will have blooms all summer long if you plant a few 
bulbs every two weeks. Remove the bulbs from the 
ground in the fall before freezing weather, clean and 
dry them, and store in a cool, dry cellar. 
Our Gladiolus bulbs listed below are large, blooming size, 
1 inch and up. We guarantee them to bloom the first year.
