CULTURE: Plant the bulbs or ‘‘corms” as they are called, in trenches or in holes about six inches deep and from six to eight inches 
apart, covering them with loose fine earth, pressing it down well around the bulb. Gladiolus bulbs do well in any good, well drained 
garden soil, providing it is in a sunny location. Plant the first bulbs right after the last frost in the spring, plant more every two weeks 
until July lst and you will have flowers from mid-July until the first frost next Fall.
