GLADIOLUS CULTURE 
PLANTING—Gladiolus can be planted at about the time leaves on trees are starting to show green, up to the middle of June. 
I like early planting best. 
SOILS—They can be planted in any good garden soil that has been plowed or spaded to the depth of 8 or 10 inches. 
PLANTING DISTANCE—If planted in rows, space rows from 18 to 30 inches apart. Opening a trench to the depth of about 
6 inches and make an application of your favorite complete fertilizer. 
soil, so the bulb will not come in contact with the raw fertilizer. 
inches deep. In clay soil do not plant so deep. 
Use about 4 lbs. to 100 feet of row, then work well into the 
Set the bulbs top up 4 or 5 inches apart and in sandy soil 5 or 6 
SUMMER CARE—Cultivate the soil frequently throughout the summer, to keep down the weeds. Water when necessary by 
soaking the soil thoroughly. Deep watering stimulates healthy root action. 
CUTTING—In cutting the blooms leave at least 4 leaves on the plant to mature the bulb. 
DIGGING—Dig the bulbs carefully when the foliage is turning brown, but always before hard freezing weather. Cut the stems 
off close to the bulb, and dry the bulbs in a frost proof airy shed for about three weeks, then the old mother bulb can be removed, 
leaving a clean new bulb or bulbs. 
STORAGE—Store in a frost proof cellar. A temperature of about 40 degrees is best. Place in shallow trays, and the different 
varieties can be placed loosely in thin cloth bags. Tie and label as to name of variety.
