GROW QUANTITIES OF GLADIOLUS 
Few garden flowers can be grown as easily 
and produce such a satisfactory display 
of color in a short period. Gladiolus are in- 
dispensable for the cutting garden and 
useful in borders if planted close together 
in groups of one color. 
Culture is simple even for an amateur. Any good 
garden soil is adequate, but a sunny location is 
essential to success. Corms should be planted 4 
inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart. In the cutting 
garden, a double row is very satisfactory. If corms 
are planted closely, twine stretched between stakes 
along either side will provide sufficient support. 
By planting bulbs in succession, there will be a 
Jong season of bloom. Bulbs for September flower- 
ing are available until July 15, the atest date for 
planting in this area. A period of 10 to 13 weeks is 
required from planting of corms until flowering.
