NEW VARIETIES FROM AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND 
I am one grower who does not think it necessary to apologize for specializing - in Gladiolus 
of foreign originations. Too many Gladiolus have been introduced in this country the past 
few years that are just so much junk. Most of these are ones that are or have been extensive¬ 
ly advertised. After having seen these in comparison to the newer ones from Australia I do not 
hesitate to recommend the latter to amateurs or commercial growers. For the most part they 
are far ahead of what this country has to offer. 
It is not necessary to take our word for this, but in our selection of varieties we looked to 
such world acclaimed specialists as Errey Bros., Percy Symons, Coates, G. Errey, Wm. Julvan, 
the reports of the Ballarat Trial grounds and notes in the Australian “Flower Lover,” etc. 
Not all the Australian Gladiolus with fanciful names being advertised are worth growing, 
but for those who never have seen or grown the new ones by all means start in with Mrs. S. A. 
Errey, Red Lory, and Our Selection and if possible include the two Giants: Lucifer (a new type 
often having up to 4 side shoots over 2 feet in length), and Silversheen (a massive spike of 
pink). Both awarded F. C. C. and the latter rated the most freely exhibited Gladiolus at the 
Australian shows a year ag - o. Waratah, still rare, is a new red both dazzling in color and size 
and still sun-proof. It will be very popular, has a rugged growth like Nuthall, is brighter than 
Bennett and opens up its whole spike like Red Lory. A masterpiece in brilliant red. 
Of some of these we have imported nearly the entire amount available so that we have 
many times more stock than all the other growers in this country combined. With our this 
year’s importations and plantings we will no doubt have the largest planting of the newer 
Australian Gladiolus in this country. 
OUR STOCK OF MAIR’S VARIETIES IS ALSO EXCEEDED BY NO ONE.
