GLADIOLI BULBS 
Ours are carefully cured and graded. They are all first-size bulbs properly 
prepared for forcing. Plant from Jan. 15 to March 15 for blooms from May 15 
and on. NEVER plant before this, as earlier plantings will result in blind- 
ness. Pot in 3" pots and ordinary soil; place them under the benches. When- 
ever pots are full of roots, move into 45° to 50° night temperature. DO NOT 
give more heat, else the leaves may turn yellow, and the bulbs go blind. It 
is good to water cautiously until buds begin to form. After that water cop- 
iously, and give liquid manure once a week. They may also be put in benches 
8" x 36" apart, 3" deep. Soil must be at least 5" deep; avoid strong heat.
