I want to take this opportunity to thank all my customers of 
last season for the best season’s business I have ever had. It 
surely is appreciated... I have heard from many of these customers 

and find that on the whole the season was very good. Most 

everyone had good glads and a generally successful season. 
This year as you will see I am introducing more new varieties 
than usual but they are good. It will pay any commercial grower 
of bulbs to get a start with these new kinds. Most of them will 
become standard varieties in a very few years.

Listed on the pages of this catalogue are the prices and 
description of more than 150 different varieties of gladiolus bulbs. 
Please be assured that we stand firmly behind any bulbs we sell. 
Our experience in developing gladiolus bulbs extends over a 
period of fourteen years. We feel that this catalogue lists varieties 
of bulbs not found in the usual run of the market ‘and at poces 
which we are sure it will be difficult to duplicate. 
To the amateur flower grower who feels that a bit of assist- 
ance might be helpful we offer the benefit of our years of flower 
experience. Call or write at anytime. 

Sincerely yours, 
RICHARD C. BYROM.
