The Beautiful New Races of Gladiolus 
With Ruffled or Fluted Petals 
NEW CLASS! NEW TYPE! NEW COLORS! 
Each petal is exquisitely ruffled or 
fluted, giving the flowers a refined ap¬ 
pearance, equaled only by the finest 
orchids. The only races of Gladiolus 
ever produced in the United States, the 
only really American races, and the 
most beautiful of all. Foremost author¬ 
ities pronounce them u an epoch-making 
event in Horticulture.” 
Opinions of Two World-Famous 
Horticulturists 
LUTHER BURBANK 
“The Wizard of Horticulture" 
Santa Rosa, California, 
Nov. 22, 1910. 
The Ruffled Gladiolus which you 
sent me last spring (Kunderdi Glory) 
bloomed nicely this summer. It is a 
fine, light color, elegantly ruffled, and 
a strong, healthful grower. 
The Ruffled Gladiolus, like the 
Ruffled sweet peas, have a refined 
appearance which the common flat 
ones do not possess. 
Yours very truly, 
LUTHER BURBANK.

MATHEW CRAWFORD 
Author of “The Gladiolus" and “Dean 
of the Gladiolus Franternity", whose 
judgment is deferred to by all 
who know him, says: 
“I have grown Kunderd’s New 
Ruffled Gladiolus for several years 
and am charmed with them. They 
are immensely more beautiful than 
the plain." 
Again: “Mr. Kunderd was the first 
man in the world to produce Ruffled 
Gladiolus by scientific methods." 
Sincerely yours, 
MATHEW CRAWFORD,
