GENERAL LIST OF GLADIOLUS 
All our bulbs are plump, healthy, and both large and medium bulbs are of 
blooming size. Small bulbs usually produce blooms late in the season. Bulb- 
lets seldom bloom the first year, and a percentage of these “baby” bulbs 
always fails to germinate—the rest grow into bulbs, mostly small. 
Large bulbs always produce the finest exhibition spikes, and sometimes 
throw several spikes to the bulb. Medium sized bulbs give excellent spikes, 
particularly when planted early in the season. Small sized bulbs seldom 
give much more than a short spike but produce large bulbs for the follow- 
ing season. 
Large bulbs are 1!/, inches in diameter or over; medium are | inch to 1!/4 
inches and small bulbs are 1/2 to 34 inch. L. = large, M. = medium. S. — 
small Blbts. — bulblets. When the size is not noted, large size is implied. 
For special collections see pages 6 and 15. 
The 3, 12, 50 and 100 prices are applicable to one individual variety, not to 
different ones priced alike—no smaller quantities than those listed. 
Please Note—Our Gladiolus bulbs were grown under the best of conditions, 
but as an extra precaution we fumigate all of our bulbs with methyl bromide, 
which gives 100 per cent kill of all insects and their eggs.

This year our plantings are somewhat larger than the past year; however, 
we have only a limited supply of some varieties and suggest that you send 
your orders early. If you order late in the season please advise if we may 
substitute.
