Watsonias 
Close relative of the Gladiolus but winter growing and earlier in bloom. They grow 
as tall or taller. The flowers are smaller but in very lovely spikes useful for cutting. The 
colors are varied, in most pleasing pastel tones, and bloom early if planted early. Better 
even the second and third years. Easy to have them for Decoration Day or before in 
Southern California. In most cases we have discarded names and substituted the name 
of their color. 
Culture: About the same as Glads, In the south they must be planted in early fall 
(Sept. best) as the bulbs sprout early. Hardy at Washington, D.C., and probably in all 
climates where temperatures do not go below zero, if planted in a well protected place, 
4” deep and well mulched. On the border line of their hardiness, as in Virginia, they 
have been grown and flowered in an unheated cloth house and survived outside tempera- 
tures of slightly under zero. They must be grown very cool in greenhouses.

Wholesale. If you grow commercially in a small or large way or wish to plant in 
considerable quantity for your own use we offer you quantity prices much below usual 
wholesale. Do not attempt to grow them where winter temperatures go below 10° under 
zero except in a greenhouse and where temperatures range 10° below to 5° above it is 
safer to plant in a cloth house or unheated to slightly heated greenhouse. 
The 100 rates above are low wholesale prices. In addition we offer Burbank’s 
Lavender, Rosolane Purple and Mrs. Bullard’s White for $25.00/1000 and the assorted 
varieties for $20.00/1000. By express, f.o.b. 500 bulbs are offered at 1000 rates. 
Freesias, Sparaxis, Ixias, etc. These species require similar treatment. The “etc,” 
species will have separate culture directions. 
Freesias, Sparaxis and Ixias are hardy outside where temperatures go as low as 26°. 
At about that temperature some of the foliage will be damaged, flowers will be injured
