Gladiolus Primulinus

Nelsonville, P. Q. 
GLADIOLUS PRIMULINUS HYBRIDS 
A few years ago the wild “Primulinus” Gladiolus was discovered near 
Victoria Falls, South Africa. As we know the modern garden varieties 
of to-day it was inferior — but what was important it was rugged, flori. 
ferous and bore the purest yellow flowers known among Gladiolus. I a 
consequence it was taken in hand by several Gladiolus hybridizers in 
Europe who crossed it with various allied species and choice garden 
varieties; although the strong, wild blood of Primulinus predominates 
these hybrids, yet the opposite parents have had so much influence that 
we describe the hybrids as follows: flowers of medium size, borne profusely 
colors, bright and varied with an undertone of yellow— as pure yellow,’ 
chamois, orange, buff, copper, yellow shot with orange red, buff with 
orange-rose, orange-red, some with soft orange or golden throats, etc.- 
growth vigorous, from 3 to 5 feet high; spikes long, graceful and well 
furnished; most graceful and beautiful for vases. All of which we offer 
in mixture. Price 10c. each, SI.00 per doz., $7.00 per 100, $05.00 per 1,000.
