The World's Fair medal for best col- lection of cut Gladioli, was awarded for the collection from which our bulbs came. Gladiolus, Exposition mixture, each, 5c. ; dozen, 50c. ; hundred, by express. We guarantee the Exposition mixture to contain no Brenchleyensis, and no two to be exactly alike in flower. Cultural sheet sent with each Madeira Vine, or Climbing Mignonette. A rapid growing vine, with glossy leaves and long, pendulous, fine white flowers; very fragrant. 5c. each ; 50c.
