SHIPPING DATES: We can make bulk shipments of Gladiolus bulbs the year 
round. Generally, Gladiolus bulbs are planted commencing early in the spring 
and successively throughout the spring and early summer. In the deep South 
bulbs are placed on sale commencing immediately after Christmas; elsewhere 
sales commence later, about 30 days prior to earliest spring planting dates. In 
Florida, South Texas, and the Gulf Coast, Gladiolus bulbs can be stocked for sale 
and planting in summer and early fall for fall and winter blooms. Flowers bloom 
60 to 80 days from planting date and can withstand cold but not hard freezes. 
PACKING: In sturdy shipping containers, gross weight 30-35 lbs. per case, color 
varieties carefully labelled.
