GLAD CULTURE IN A NUTSHELL 
1. Planting Time—April 1 to June 25, 
2. Site—In full sunshine, well drained soil, Keep 
: from buildings, trees and shrubbery, stir soil ( 
3. Planting Depth——Bulblets, 2 inches, small size 3 in 
medium 3 to 4 inches, large 4 to 6 inches. Rows— 
3 feet apart. 
4. In Cutting Flowers, leave at least 4 leaves intact. 
5. Lysol Dip—1 tablespoon Lysol; 1 gallon water. 
bulbs 4 to 6 hours immediately before planting. 
6. Thirp Spray—2 ozs. tartar Emetic; 2 ozs. brown sugi 
corn syrup; 3 gallons water. Mix well. Spray wo 
after third leaf of foliage appears until bloom starts. 
Also use D, D, T. spray, 2 ozs. D. D. T. 3 gallons water: 
Mix well, use the 50% wettable D. D. T. for spray and 
5% for dust. 
7. Dig bulbs about 4 to 6 weeks after varieties are done 
blcoming usually in October. Store in coolest part of 
basement after bulbs have been dried thoroughly in 
shade. 
Naphthalene Flakes—scattered over your bulbs in 
storage and cover with paper for 3 or 4 weeks then sift off. 
Do not put flakes on after roots start to form or while bulbs 
are moist as it will burn. This will kiil all thrip that may 
have been on the bulbs. 
D. D. T. is very good instead of the Naphthalene 
flakes, When you get ready to store your bulbs, give 
them a light dusting of 5% D. D. T. This will eliminate 
any danger of thrips feeding on your bulbs during stor- 
age period, 
BULB SIZES—Large bulbs are 1% inch and up. These 
are your best blooms for size and some earlier as a rule, 
and are designated by the letter “L,” 
Medium bulbs % to 11% inch. This size will give good 
bloom but not quite as early to bloom. Medium size is 
designated by the letter “M.” 
Small bulbs are % to % inch. This size is designated 
by the letter “S.” 
Plant small bulbs and bulblets as early as is possible 
to get them into the ground to give them a longer growing 
season, and keep weeds down. You will be surprised at 
your returns,

Glads are easy to grow and anyone—even a begin- 
ner—can grow the finest show flowers.
