GLADIOLUS. Gladiolus. Gladiolus are universally admired for magDificent flowers, which are of the richest: colors. To obtain a succession of bloom, they should be planted fortnightly, from the first of April to the beginning of June. They will then produce a succession of blooms from July to November. Plant in good, dry, sandy loam, from two to four inches deep, according to size of bulb. In Autumn, when the leaves turn yellow, the bulb is sufficiently ripe to take up. After taking up, they should be sun dried for a day or two, then put in a dry cellar and kept from the frost. We have a fine collection of these bulbs, and- ean furnish the finest sorts in cultivation. Lilies. The Lily has always been deservedly a fav- orite. They are most graceful in lines,brilliant in delicacy of color, and of delightful fragrance. They succeed best in a dry, rich soil, where water will not stand in winter. After planting they re- quire very little care, and if not disturbed for several years, they will bloom more freely than if taken up annually.
