BULBLETS OF PICARDY 
This variety is a rapid grower from bulblets and when properly spaced gives 
many flowers and produces large bulbs. 
Per Peck $2.00; Per Bushel $7.00 
Long Island has long enjoyed the reputation of producing some of 
the finest Gladiolus that are grown in this country. The bulbs are solid, 
high crowned and have firm skins that far excel those seen from many 
many other sections. For forcing they are several days earlier, than 
others we have tried, and, when planted outdoors, they perform second 
to none. 
Our fields are as thrip-free as it is humanly possible to maintain, 
but, like all other growers who are sincere, we urge our customers to- 
use all known means of combating this pest during the growing season. 
Ask us for the special bulletin we have prepared giving the latest in- 
formation available on the control of Gladiolus thrip.
