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, 14% in. and more across, guaranteed to bloom.
