This very attractive flower has grown into popularity with marvelous rapidity. All lovers of flowers 6nd a suitable space for many of 
the wonderful distinct varieties. You can not afford to be without a liberal planting. 
The Gladiolus are the most attractive and useful cut flowers of all the summer flowering bulbs. The long, graceful spikes that carry 
fifteen to twenty buds may be cut soon as the first flower buds show color; then, if kept in water each successive bud will develop and 
thus prolong the blooming many days. No other flower is thus equal, nor as easy of cultivation. 
The planting season starts in April, and continues until in June, at intervals of 2 weeks; you thus have flowers from late July until 
frost time. Best results are obtained in a sunny position and placing the bulbs fully 6 inches deep. Water freely. 
A very complete Cultural Iicaflet on Gladiolus free with orders upon request. To eliminate Aphis and Thrip treat with Semesan, 
or Corrosive Sublimate, and store with Naphthalene Flakes. 
6 bulbs of a kind at dozen rate; 25 of a kind at 100 rate.
