2 EVERHART'S PRICE LIST 

FOREWORD 
To those who are new growers let us say that 
in general, Gladiolus varieties do well under a 
greater range of soil and climatic conditions 
than any other flower. Nowhere in these days 
of high prices can you find so much enjoyment 
for so little cash as in the purchase of fine 
Gladiolus. 
If we could sit down with you and compare 
notes on our likes and dislikes, on our color 
preferences, on our growing conditions, on our 
exhibiting experiences, on our future hopes or 
our past disappointments — then we would 
know just how badly the Glad Bug has bitten 
you and just what varieties to recommend. 

Of the tremendous number of new introduc- 
tions this year we would recommend that you 
get out your yardstick and take these measure- 
ments. First — Has it been thoroughly tested 
in reputable Trial Gardens? Second — Is the 
introducer or originator reliable in a high per- 
centage of the statements he has made in the 
past concerning his varieties? Third — Dont 
let the lure “Imported” be mistaken for “Finest 
Quality.”” Let the variety stand on its own 
merits. 
There are so many good varieties, some of 
which are variable with weather conditions, 
that we will forego the usual procedure of list- 
ing our favorites. We will try to give an honest 
description of each variety and any variety we 
connot recommend we refuse to list. 
Because of the increased printing costs we 
are forced to adopt the policy of sending cat- 
alogues only to those who have ordered bulbs 
within the past three years or who send a new 
request.
