Michigan Grown GLADIOLUS BULBS 
For Outside Planting—Counter Sales or Mail Order Trade 
In buying direct from the grower, you have the assurance 
of quality bulbs grown especially for the wholesale trade from 
young, vigorous stock. You are assured of high-crowned true- 
toyname bulbs, accurately graded, hand selected; clean and 
healthy—thrips free. These bulbs cannot fail to produce top 
grade flowers. 
For best results plant after January 15th. For cold frame plant- 
ing use EITHER first or second size bulbs. Many successful 
florists use third size bulbs for main crop outside, with second 
size for extra early or late. 
If not familiar with the varieties listed, we recommend our 
Collections A, B, C or D, which we feature as an introductory 
offer to new customers.

Dust with DDT for protection against insects. To prevent 
thrips infestation, we recommend dusting with 5% DDT once 
a week, starting when the plants are 6 inches high, until the 
flower spikes appear. The best time to apply this dust is 
early morning while leaves are wet with dew. Wettable DDT 
sprays may be used. Follow manufacturers recommendations.
