Max Schling ’s Selected Gladiolus 
FIRST-QUALITY—SELECTED AND APPROVED BY MAX SCHLING , 
Without exception there has been no garden flower which has been so thoroughly ja 
improved in the past decade, nor has any flower made such gains in popularity. It is 
not unusual to find varieties today with blooming spikes averaging well over 30 inches 
with individual florets measuring up to 6 inches in diameter. In addition to the in- 
crease in size, color developments have been made combining practically every color 
known to man. 
Our bulbs are plump high-crowned, guaranteed No. 1 size, and are thrip treated 
with DDT and thrip free. 
To assist in selecting colors, the varieties are listed under color classifications.
