Fottler, Fiske, Rawson Co., Boston 
Rosalie. latest and most free-flowering 
__1 Gladiolus. Color a pleasing light red, 
veined lighter or rosy; similar in shape to Brench- 
leyensis. A particular feature of this variety is 
its lateness in blooming, the flowers appearing to 
the end of September, when other varieties have 
finished blossoming. This variety is very free, 
bearing as a rule four to five strong stalks from 
one bulb. The spikes are strong and erect and 
combined with its free-flowering habit, it can be 
recommended highly for massing effects. The 
growth is strong and the healthy light green fo¬ 
liage quite attractive. This new variety multiplies 
very readily by division; usually three to five 
bulbs produced in a cluster from one season’s 
growth. 
Each 7c., doz. 75c., 100 $5.50.
