Routledge Seed & Floral Co.’s 1934 Complete Annual Spring Catalog 
GLADIOLUS—QUEEN OF FLOWERS 
We are justly proud of our gladiolus—grown 
under our own supervision here in Oregon, the 
capitol of glad culture. Only selected strains, 
chosen from hundreds of varieties that cover 
every color and class are offered you. 
Gladiolus are easy to grow and do well in any 
soil so long as they have lots of sunshine and 
moisture. Plant them about 2 inches apart and 2 
to 3 inches deep; four inches is not too deep, and 
they will reward you with a wealth of color that 
no other flower can supply. If you have a sunny 
spot in your garden by all means plant glads 
and lots of them.
