GLADIOLUS 
One hundred years ago this last summer the first 
hybrid gladiolus bloomed in an English garden. Today 
there are thousands of varieties in all the known shades 
and; color combinations. You’ll be astonished with the 
introductions of the last decade. Health, vigor and 
size as well as color range and clarity have been greatly 
improved. We offer you the best from originators all 
over the world, including such famous hybridists as, 
the Eneys of Australia, the Pfitzers of Germany, Palmer 
of Canada, Lemoure of France, Mair of Scotland, Kun- 
derd, Coleman and Salback of U. S. A. and many others. 
Try some of these newer varieties for the most beauti¬ 
ful and longest lasting cut flowers you have ever seen. 
“Glads”, as they are known by those who grow 
them, are easy to grow. Any good garden soil is ideal. 
Give them full sun and a good soaking every five to 
eight days. Plant four to six inches deep and apart 
in rows. If you have had trouble with tbrip ask us 
about the easy and inexpensive control measures. As 
a planting time preventative against disease soak bulbs 
over night in a solution of one ounce of corrosive sub¬ 
limate to seven gals, of water. Use wooden, crock 
or unchipped proeelain container. Dig bulbs about 
six to eight weeks after they have finished blooming. 
Remove tops at once and store in shallow open containei 
in a cool but frost proof place. Clean off dirt and dead 
mother bulb during spare time after bulbs are dry. 
The small bulblets may be kept and planted to increase 
stock. Most of them will bloom the second year. 
Our bulbs are large healthy young stock free from 
disease and sure to bloom.
