GLADIOLUS BULBS 
Burpee’s famous gladiolus are grown and. admired wherever beautiful flowers are 
known. They make attractive displays in the garden, planted either in beds or in 
groups here and there in the perennial or annual border. They are ideal for house 
decoration. If the spikes are cut when the bottom flower shows color, all the buds, 
clear to the top, will open. Gladiolus are easily grown in any good, well-drained soil. 
Our bulbs are of large size, 1144 in. or more across, guaranteed to bloom.
