SPRING CATALOGUE OF SEEDS, BULBS AND PLANTS FOR 1906. 97. £jjen>oir>e's N^vtf Hardy Hybrid G!adioIt,s. The odd' and fantasticlmarkings of these Gladiolus, and their beautiful shape, resemble the fascinating beauty of the Orchid. Yellow, crimson, white, brown, green, pink, are blended together producing an effect seen in no other flower. They are of recent introduction, therefore new and quite unknown. It is useless, to attempt to describe their regal beauty, for it cannot be done. They must be seen. Besides their gay colors and odd markings, they have two very important points of superiority over other sorts. First, they bloom two or three weeks earlier and are in full perfec- tion before others appear; and secondly, they are hardy and may be left in the ground over winter, from year , without lifting in autumn ; yet we do not advise this plan, as we think it better to lift them in the fall and store them fin the cellar, that they may be planted out in fresh, mellow soil in spring. They do well either way. Atlas—Clear , large velvety maroon blotch. Admiral Pierre — Large flowers, round, very open; dark .carmine-red, lower division clouded maroon. Bejasset —Lovely light pink, shading to delicate blush. Chas. Martin—Rosy blush, intense large carmine blotch. De Cheville—Salmon red, buff blotch. Edison—A beautiful combination of many rich colors. Emille I,emoine—Bright Vermillion dotted gold. Entendard—Light brick-red, with large canary blotches. Ethel—Beautiful blush pink. P. Bergman—Large, orange-pink, with carmine stains. Incendiary -Fiery red, large blotch of crimson-red on lower petals, small gold markings. Lamarck -
