YOUNG'S GLADIOLUS Gloxinia THE GLADIOLUS consti- tutes one of the finest features of the flower garden during the summer and autumn months, for diversity of color and general effect, either in masses or planted in clumps for border decoration. Plant (after danger of freezing is past) in ordinary soil, 3 inches deep and 6 or 8 inches apart, and they will soon throw up tall spikes of beautiful flow- ers of the most brilliant and gorgeous colors, crimson .scar- let, purple, orange, white, etc., with all imaginable shades and markings. Each bulb produces from one to three spikes, which continue brilliant for weeks. By planting Gladiolus at inter- vals of acouple of weeks, from early in April until July, flow- ers can be had constantly from June until frost. As a cut flow- er, the Gladiolus has no equal for large vases, etc., as they will keep well in water for several days, gradually expandingun- til every bud has opened. They should be taken up in the fall and kept in a dry cellar until spring unnamed are much cheaper, and embrace all the colors of the named varieties.
