MARSHALL'S MATCHLESS BULBS 
GLADIOLUS 
There are no other Summer-flowering bulbs so satisfactory, needing so little attention and thriving so 
well in almost any ordinary soil as the Gladiolus. Set the bulbs from 3 to 6 inches apart in rows, or for 
massing 6 inches apart, and about 4 inches deep. 
Our selection of varieties has been made from many, and includes all those of exceptional merit and 
a wide range of colors.
