SUPERFINE GLADIOLI 
(25 of any one variety at the 100 rate) 
Gladioli may be planted at any time the bulbs are available in Southern California, although 
February to May is the most suitable time. Plant the bulbs in a sunny location, 3 inches deep 
and 4 to 6 inches apart in rows 2 feet apart, or they may be planted in groups and borders. 
Gladioli require plenty of water and should be watered copiously at least once a week until 
after the blooms have gone. To have a long blooming season bulbs should be planted in suc¬ 
cession, making plantings about two weeks apart. 
NAPHTHALENE FLAKES —We have found that Naphthalene Flakes are excellent for 
sprinkling over stored gladiolus corms to control gladiolus thrip and also aphids. We are using 
these on our own stored corms very successfully and we recommend them to you. It takes 1 
ounce of Naphthalene Flakes to treat 100 corms. Recently they have been used in control of 
insects and worms which damage seeds and plants in soil. Cultivate Naphthalene Flakes into 
damp soil at rate of 2 lbs. to 100 square feet. Lb. 40c, 5 lbs. $1.75, 10 lbs. $3.00; postage extra.
