WiNG’s Gladioli 
For years we have worked with this 
flower in our trial grounds, testing out 
the varieties offered by our American 
growers, and the choicest products of 
the great European hybridists, discard¬ 
ing everything not worthy, and keeping 
the ones that showed especial merit. As 
the result of this work we offer our col¬ 
lection of over 400 varieties, many of 
which can be obtained from no other 
source. We have more rare imported 
Gladioli than any other house in America. 
The Exclusion Act forbids the further im¬ 
portation of these bulbs, and they will be¬ 
come more and more scarce and higher- 
priced. 
We offer below a selection which we believe 
to be unequaled:

borne in long, full spikes which are 
beautifully curved, lending them¬ 
selves to graceful and artistic ar¬ 
rangements. Price $10 each. 
An tionette 
White and pale rose. Flowers 
large, of perfect bell type and most 
exquisite coloring. The character¬ 
istics of this Gladiolus are its per¬ 
fect form and delicate hues. Price, 
SIO each. 
Emile Aubrun 
Rose Begonia and carmine-lake, 
with velvety blotch of carmine- 
purple. Coloring warm and deep. 
Flowers of immense size, with ra- 
markable texture, broad and well 
opened, on long, sturdy spikes. Of 
most distinguished appearance, a 
knight and a warrior among the 
flowers. Price, $10 each. 
Lutetia 
Pale rose with snow-white midrib 
and throat. One of the very larg¬ 
est of all Gladioli. Flowers fully 
four inches across, with very long 
elliptical petals. This is a flower 
with a distinct personality, like a 
beautiful, queenly woman. There 
Entire Collection, one bulb of each for $50.

each.

spikes. This .variety is of out¬ 
standing quality even when placed 
with a royal collection. Price, $10 
each. 
Sans Pareil 
Clear, glowing orange-pink, with

this flower can be compared to 
nothing but a rosy sunset cloud, so 
pure and bright it is, while the 
form is very fine. Price, $10 each. 
Souboutai 
Clear copper-red slightly suffused 
blue, with very large white blotch. 
This flower resembles Roi Alex¬ 
andre in its contrast between a

ion to that variety. Flowers large, 
with heavy texture. Strong, full 
spike. Price, $10 each.
