MINIATURE GLADIOLUS 
Miniature Gladiolus, as the name denotes, are very small, the florets 
usually measuring from an inch and a half to 2% inches across. However, 
many Glads up to 3 and 4 inches, such as Pinocchio herein listed, are 
often considered in the miniature group. In ease of culture, the little 
Glads equal their larger sisters; and for bouquets and corsages, they far 
outrank the larger flowers. Many of them are beautifully ruffled or 
frilled. Some are quite hooded, especially the really little fellows, giving 
them a sleepy look. Others have true “up-facing’”’, wide-open blooms. 
Color range is as gorgeous as the big Glads. Stems are usually from 24 to 
30 inches, slender and wiry, thus: giving them a grace and delicacy not 
found in the larger types.
