W. M. HALE S. C., July 16, 1921: “I purchased 1,500 Gladioli bulbs from 
different growers this year, but those from you were by far the best of all.” 
WILLIAM GILDERSLEEVE, Mich., July 20, 1921: “Mr. Kunderd, I will tell 
you that if all the people could see my flowers from the bulbs I bought of you, 
you surely could not near fill all your orders.” 
MRS. GRACE BAIRD, Calif., June 25, 1921: “The Gladioli I got from you 
this year have been wonderful. Only 2 of the 92 varieties I have of yours were not 
what I had hoped they would be. My ‘Anthony B. Kunderd’ is wonderful, words 
cannot express its beauty.” 
W. E. MORGAN, Ky., July 15, 1921: “The Gladioli bought of you this spring 
are now in bloom. ‘Arlon’ is 4y 2 feet tall. Your success is not surprising.” 
B. HALSEY SPENCER, Springfield, Mass., July 26, 1921: “There are many 
beautiful standard varieties of Gladioli but yours are in a class by themselves. A 
neighbor after seeing those I bought of you threw all of his away and is going 
to begin all over again. Several others will follow suit.” 
IT. C. BLAND, S. C., July 7, 1921: “I am so enthused over the Gladioli I 
bought of you that I expect to plant a great many next season.” 
MRS. DORA A. WELLS, Wisconsin, July, 1921: “I speak highly of your 
Gladioli to all of my friends and advise them to buy all their bulbs of you.” 
W. R. JOHNSON, Ill., May 31, 1921: “Up until three years ago I spent ten 
years in California and thought the finest Gladioli grew in that section but evidently 
you have forgotten more about the Gladiolus than they ever dreamed of.” 
E. W. ROBERTS, Mich., July 17, 1921: “While the beauty of your Gladioli is 
fresh before me, I wish to thank you for the pleasure they have given me. I con¬ 
sider them as a gift from your years of hard work and not as a thing purchased. 
It is impossible at this time to measure the importance of your work with this 
flower, but it looms up greater as the years pass by. Again I thank you for the 
thrill of beauty as it passes on.” 
PAUL LE HARDY, Porto Rico, May 19, 1921: “The glory of my Gladioli is on 
the wane; I am very, very sorry! One by one the stalks came up and soon began 
to regale my eyes with beautiful blossoms. Mr. Kunderd, what praise can I give 
to Purple Glory and to Challenger? You know them, praise from me would be 
tame, they are chieftains. Your list is replete with great ones. I will want to 
add to my collection. I wish you, with renewed thanks, continuation of success.” 
J. B. DAVIS, Alabama, May 13, 1921: “Please allow me to express my appre¬ 
ciation for the fine Gladioli bulbs that you sent me this year. I never saw more 
beautiful than they produced. Crinkles is the prettiest Gladiolus 1 ever saw with 
Purple Glory a close second.” 
MRS. E. N. NELSON, N. J.: “In justice to you I wish to express my appre¬ 
ciation of your wonderful gladioli. Two' years ago I ordered from you and they 
are all that one could wish. Henceforth all my orders for gladioli will be placed 
with Mr. Kunderd and I will be glad to recommend you to my friends.” 
MRS. A. S. TPIAXTER, Calif., Jan. 5, 1920: “I have not had very good success 
with the Gladiolus, but everybody says, ‘just order from Kunderd and you will have 
Gladioli,’ so I am going to try again.” 
WM. H. SAPP, Md., Jan. 11, 1921: “I want to say that the testimonials in 
your catalog, also the booklet you sent me last year, speak none too highly of your 
wonderful flowers. You deserve all the praise the world can give you for such 
beautiful creations.” 
JAMES IT. McCALLION, Rhode Island, 1920, writes: “I am sending you the 
list of bulbs selected for our garden this summer, and am afraid you’ll have to tell 
me you really can’t send them to have me believe it. But I want Kunderd bulbs, 
and if I have to wait for them another year, I will, as now that I know the dif¬ 
ference, no others would satisfy.” 
JAMES ALLEN, Ontario 1920, writes: “Last year I was unable to get any of 
your Gladioli and I am now looking at what I got from elsewhere and am very 
much disappointed at the result. Will you have some for sale this year? I am 
wishful to get my order to you early so as not to be disappointed again.”
