FACTS ABOUT THE GLADIOLUS. The flowers of Gladioli are not formed in 
the corm as is the case with Tulips and Lilies; but are made as the plant 
develops. It is therefore necessary to have good fertile soil and proper 
moisture to develop the finest flowers. Young corms 2 or 3 years old 
have a high crown and small basal area. It is from these bulbs that the 
finest flowers originate. Each year a new corm is formed on top of the 
original bulb, and bulblets are produced at its base. The old bulb will 
produce a poorer flower with each season. it is used. New bulbs are ob- 
doe Se ap tained by growing the bulblets on until they reach optimum size of 114 
Treasury Gold in. diam. It is from these bulbs that the finest blooms are obtained.
