MICHELL’S SUPERB GLADIOLUS 
57 
Our Gladiolus bulbs are carefully cured and graded, the first size bulbs being properly prepared for forcing. Bulbs are produced 
under the best conditions on our contract farms in Michigan and also eastern points and have been raised from stock which has not been 
used for cut flower purposes. This insures quality bulbs that can be depended upon for good results under proper care and culture. If 
our customers desire any varieties or other sizes of Gladiolus not in our list, please write us for prices, etc., as we are in a position to take 
care of your needs. 
PLEASE NOTE: All gladiolus bulbs offered are first size, 134 inch and up, unless otherwise specified.
