48 FLOWER BULBS _ RUSSELL-HECKLE __ MEMPHIS, TENN. 
Gladiolus 
Culture—Gladioli will thrive in almost any good soil except a stiff clay. They require full sunlight 
and are liable to injury only from rank manure. Plant the bulbs 6 to 9 inches apart, the large ones 
4 inches and the small ones 2 inches deep. Make an early planting of the smallest bulbs first as soon 
as the ground is sufficiently dry and warm. Continue to plant at Intervals of two weeks during the 
spring and early summer; in this way a succession of bloom may be had from mid-summer until frost
