GLADIOLUS 
RECURVUS HYBRIDS 
These hybrids have the same habit of growth and require the 
same culture as Tristis but embrace all the pastel shades, some 
being delicately penciled with contrasting colors. While Tristis 
is fragrant only at night, the Recurvus Hybrids are very fragrant 
both day and night. 100, $15.00. 
TRISTIS, SUPREME 
Supreme is a reselection of Tristis and a stronger grower with 
upright flowers better placed on the stem. In addition, the flower 
is delightfully fragrant, and will stand cut a week in good condi- 
tion. There is only one color in Gladiolus Tristis, Supreme: 
cream-white. We receive numerous inquiries for pink and yellow 
which are often seen and greatly admired. For anyone desiring 
these colors we recommend the following procedure: The cut 
flowers should be plunged into flower dye from 2 to 3 hours, 
the intensity of the color depending upon the strength of dye 
solution. 100, $15.00; 1,000, $145.00. 
Flower Dye, with directions for using, pkt., $1.50.
