If you grow Gladiolus for cutting, do not 
fail to include at least a nominal number of 
PICARDY 
(See Inside Back Cover for Colored 
Illustration and Prices) 
Picardy has proved to be the most outstand¬ 
ing cutflower Gladiolus introduced in the 
past decade and this very worthwhile va¬ 
riety has created no end of unusually 
favorable comment from the trade and 
public as well.
