Rocknoll’s Superb Qladiolus

costing so little and so easily grown that will give an equal amount of beautiful 
Mowers for the garden, or for cutting. Four planting of Gladiolus bulbs should be 
made, between May 1 and July 1. By doing this a full 2y z month flowering season 
may be had. We offer only standard garden tested varieties that will give you an 
abundance of bloom.
