The Famous FRAGRANT GLADIOLUS 
This variety came from Ethiopia as Gladiolus Murialae and 
while some botanists consider this to be its correct classification, 
others classify it as a species of Acidanthera. Under whichever 
name you choose to call it, you will find it to be one of the finest 
additions to your Gladiolus garden. The flowers are pure white with 
a maroon-black blotch on the lower petal, produced on spikes about 
2 feet tall. When in bloom, the entire garden is filled with a de- 
lightful perfume suggestive of carnations. Blooming size bulbs 
which are smaller than regular Gladiolus bulbs. (3 for 45c) (6 for 
80c) (12 for $1.50) prepaid.
