GLADIOLUS 
The Gladiolus is known and highly esteemed by all lovers of flowers. The handsome flower- 
spikes, of great substance, are very attractive in beds or borders and as cut-flowers. Their good 
keeping quality as a cut-flower will be greater if spikes are cut whenever the two lower flowers 
have opened. Of easy culture and thrive well in any good garden soil. Bulbs planted during April 
will begin flowering in July, and if planted every two weeks thereafter until the latter part of June 
will produce continuous succession of bloom until frost. Our bulbs are grown by specialists.
