GLADIOLI 
Plant Manns’ Gladioli Bulbs. They are strictly 1% 
inches or more in diameter, sound, true to name, and can 
be absolutely depended upon to produce large, beautiful 
well-formed blooms. (We recommend planting bulbs not 
over 2 in. in diameter for best blooms). 
Cultural Suggestions: Set bulbs 4 inches deep and 6 
inches apart, either in rows or massed in beds, borders 
or among shrubbery. Successive plantings from April to 
July will bloom from July until frost. They will thrive 
in any good garden soil, but a sunny location is best. 
Cultivate frequently and water freely while blooms are 
forming.
