SMALL DECORATIVE OR BABY GLADIOLI — 
For those who are inclined to consider Gladioli stiff and ungrace- 
ful, here is a type so dainty, so lovely in its purity of coloring and in 
the ruffled and frilled florets, hardly known and most deserving of 
the increasing popularity amongst fanciers. 
The fact is that these small decorative Gladioli have kept pace 
with the new exhibition varieties in the great advancement, that has 
been made, in improving this flower over the last decade. 
The individual florets from | to 2 inches in diameter are gracefully 
placed on wiry spikes of from 15 to 30 inches, in bulk of bloom 
considerably less than that of the large varieties, perhaps only one 
eighth te one fifth as much. 
The Baby Gladioli are exceptionally suitable for table decorations, 
for accent points in low flower arrangement, a small vase and can be 
grown anywhere in the garden. 
The names of the various varieties are well chosen and extremely 
descriptive; they seem to belong to the world of the "little people" of 
Fairyland and their little faces are as expressive as their names. 
The varieties listed below are the best; they are strong growers 
and rapid increasers. Plant two inches deep and do not use fertilizer. 
There is really no trick to growing these little fellows; they are more 
disease resisting and productive than the large types. 
The demand for these Baby Gladioli was so great last year, that we 
had to disappoint many clients and return their checks. Order now, 
before our limited supply of excellent quality stock is exhausted.
