GLADIOLUS 
We believe that gladiolus are among the 
best for cut flower purposes. They make 
up easily into bouquets which last for many 
days. They require very little room—the 
smallest of gardens can hold 100 bulbs. Gla- 
diolus do best in full sun and plenty of mois- 
ture with good drainage. Spray if there is 
any possibiity of trips. They require some 
fertility, but will do well without it, pro- 
viding there is plenty of moisture.
