40 THE I. W. SCOTT CO., Pittsburgh, Pa. 
GLADIOLUS 
There are few flowers to compare with the Gladiolus for all-round usefulness in the home-garden—and few 
flowers are more lovely or easier to grow. Their graceful form, attractive colors, and characteristic markings 
have given them the popular name of “Garden Orchids.”” Plant the bulbs any time after mid-April up to the end 
of June, setting them about 4 inches deep and 6 inches apart. For a constant supply of flowers for cutting from 
August to frost, make plantings every week or ten days during the spring. The varieties we offer are the choicest 
in their color-range, and you will not be disappointed by any of them. Our bulbs average 1/4 inches and over 
in diameter, which is considered the very best flowering size.
