Gladiolus for 1937 
The pronunciation of the word Gladiolus has been a 
subject for much argument. The American Gladiolus 
Society and the New England Gladiolus Society have 
agreed that Glad-i-oh’-lus shall be both singular and 
plural. If we do not agree with their pronunciation we 
will just have to say Glads. 
In presenting this small list of Gladiolus we have 
made no attempt to include the new introductions or high 
priced novelties, but are offering what we believe to be 
tested, tried and true varieties which we are using and 
selling for cut flowers both in the wholesale and retail 
market. 
We have tried to list their shortcomings as grown 
here and have endeavored to praise only those whose be¬ 
havior, as they grow for us, warrant. 
Our corms are grown in sandy soil and are as free 
from disease as we can grow them. They are mercury 
treated before planting and gassed for thrips. 
Orders of $1 or more are prepaid. 
Each variety is packed separately and correctly 
labeled - except in mixed un-named collections. Guaran¬ 
teed true to name. 
SIZES. Large corms are 1 % inches and upward in 
diameter. Mediums are % to 1 inch in diameter. Small 
are % inch and under. Not all varieties bloom from small 
corms. They are purchased to grow on for larger corms 
for planting the following year. Mediums of most varieties 
bloom, but do not make as tall plants or give as large 
flowers as will large corms. If you want tall plants and 
large flowers, by all means, buy large corms.
