Special Collections 
Our gladiolus collections have been unusually popular in past years, many preferring to order their 
bulbs in this way. Collection prices are considerably below the cost of the same varieties if they were 
purchased individually from the regular price list. We have placed the finest varieties in these groups 
and a good selection of colors. All come to you correctly labeled. Because of these very low prices no 
further discounts are allowed. However, any way you figure it, these are the best values ever offered 
anywhere.
