many flowers and produces large bulbs.

Most of the bulbs we offer below are grown on our own farms 
here on Long Island—a section that has consistently produced the 
finest quality stock ever since Gladiolus were introduced into this 
Country. 
Through the use of the latest control methods devised by the 
Department of Agriculture we maintain our plantings as free from 
thrip as is humanly possible and we venture to state that nowhere in 
this Country is finer or cleaner stock available. 
The varieties we offer below are the leaders in their respective 
colors.
