FALL 1936

THIS LIST SUPERSEDES ALL PREVIOUS LISTS

Do not use an old list. There are many changes in this one.

C, hamp Lo Cfardens

ELMER E. GOVE BURLINGTON, VT.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Do not change collections or special sets. The collections are made up as they are for definite ~ reasons and we cannot change them. Any of these collections or specials are very good value.

Do not split quantities as listed. Where a variety is listed at 2 for 15 cents or 4 for 15 cents do not order 1 or 2 at a lower price. There is no profit in any items of less than ten cents and very little at that price. No single item accepted for less thar ten cents.

EXTRAS ON CASH ORDERS. On cash orders of $2.00 to $5.00 you can select 10% extra in bulbs of your own choosing. From $5.00 to $25.00 select 159%; $25.00 to $30.00 select 209 and above $50.00 select 25%. These Discounts do not Apply to Collections, Special Offers or Wholesale prices. : ;

TO MAKE OUT YOUR ORDER put everything down on the order blank, just as listed in the price list. Add it up then figure out any special discounts or add on the extra bulbs of your choosing. It is all very simple but some people seem to have a lot of trouble in making out an order.

Also on all orders of $15.00 or more I will put in a bulb of SANDRA. (See below). Qn orders of $30.00 or more I will put in a free bulb of HELENA. (See below.)

The above discounts and extras are all for cash orders. The earlier the orders are received and the larger they are the more generous we will be with our extras. _If you cannot spare all the cash now send 259% and the balance later and we will see that you are satisfied. But the above extras are only for cash before shipment.

On cash orders of $12.00 or more, except collections, I will give a copy of the “Gladiolus Book™ by Rockwell if you ask for it and if you have not already had one.

Packages of bulblets run from twenty-five to fifty or more. We give very good value.

You can have 3 bulbs at the 10 rate; 25 at the 100 rate. But no single items for less than 10 cents.

I GUARANTEE SATISFACTION and I mean just that. If at any time, either after receiving the bulbs or after blooming, you have cause for complaint just write me about it and I will do my utmost to make things right. This is the only basis on which anyone can hope to conduct a business that will be permanently successful.

. At these prices all bulbs, except the wholesale offers, are prepaid anywhere in the United States and Canada and all countries in the Postal Union.

SPECIAL QUOTATIONS. Do not ask for special quotations unless you have a large order. We will not consider quoting any special prices on small orders. I publish this price list to give people the prices and do not consider it honest to give one person a lower price than another.

REMEMBER in buying bulbs price is not everything. In fact sometimes price is a minor item. Consider the quality, count, the reliability of the grower, etc. I always mean to put in enough extra count or over size to make up for any lower price that other good reliable growers might make. Just leave it to me.

IF YOU WANT TO PAY TRANSPORTATION and get extra count on your order just mention it and I will send your order collect for postage or express and will see that you are more than satisfied. Just mention whether you want extra count on your order or extras in other kinds and what kinds. If you want bulbs sent by mail it is better to have them go C.O.D., then we know the postage is correct and I will give you more than enough bulbs to make it up. ~

ON FAIR SIZED ORDERS, EXPRESS is safest and best especially in the winter time; ' I advise express if you are situated so as to get free delivery by the express company.

EXTRAS. It is the practice of most growers to give extras on orders. I always put in some myself. So it would help me if you will mention whether you want extras of the same varieties that you order or in other kinds. And if you have a preference it will help me still more if you can name the varieties in which you want your extras and if you want large, medium or small bulbs or bulblets. Just give us a list of varieties from which to select your extras. We will put in what we think the order rates.

TWO NEW PALMER VARIETIES FREE

THESE VARIETIES ARE NOT FOR SALE THIS YEAR AT ANY PRICE. THEY CAN BE SECURED ONLY BE SENDING IN CASH ORDERS. SANDRA. Sdlg. No. 30121. Light pink. This variety is very similar to Picardy except it is lighter in color and probably will not average quite so good placement. That is, most spikes are all right but you do get occasionally a spike on which the flowers are not placed quite so well as they are in Picardy. The texture is very similar to that of Picardy—that is, it has a sort of eggshell texture | call it. There is a small diffused blotch of pinkish amber that sets the flower

“Despite the drouth and the extreme heat of 106 degrees I had glads that were the admira- tion of all who saw them. My early varieties were forced so fast they flowered rather small but all later ones were exceptionally nice.

“Last week we were given all six awards in the Glad division in the Crawford County Flower Show at Meadville. The winners were Salbach’s Orchid, Aflame, Mother Machree, Bagdad and Bleeding Heart. All of these were from your stock.

“The seed I bought from you last spring did very well. 38 out of 50 came on and are now sturdy plants.” —Rosert G. HAtt, Pa.

“The bulbs I received from you have done wonderfully well this past summer. They have been in bloom since July 15. I planted o¥er 3,000 bulbs this summer and | have not lost a one from thrip. I haven't as yet found any although last year I had plenty at the end of the season.

“I personally do not believe that better glads can be purchased anywhere.’ —WaALTER KINGSLEY, Conn.

inst eegeester of Detroit gave me your address. This year he had some of the most beau- tiful gladiolus grown in this section from bulbs procurred from you. Due to modesty he did not exhibit at the State Show held here in August but he could easily have taken many prizes par- - ticularly Picardy. “My hobby has been dahlias but now that I have learned how to control thrip | shall increase my glad space next season.” —JOoHN TERWILLIGER, Mich.

“I though you might like to know something of my experience with your glads this year. First | want to thank you for the gift bulbs, Rapture and Coronation. They are both beautiful and so far I have not been able to decide which I like better. I measured one Coronation this morning that is four feet, ten inches tall with five flowers open. ‘Needless to say I am very well pleased with the results obtained this year.” —C. M. LEE, Wis.

“Please let me thank you for the excellent bulbs you sent me. This has been my first ex- perience with glads and I have been delighted.” —M. C. Huntiery, Ala.

“I have had to write so many letters of complaint that it is indeed a pleasure that I can in form one place that I have never had so much pleasure and beauty from any gladiolus, from any company, as I had from yours. In spite of the drought—of course | watered and cared for them —they were simply gorgeous.” - —LeEnoreE NELson, Nebraska

50 CENT SPECIALS

To get first-class flowers it is not at all necessary to plant large bulbs. In my own fields I plant almost entirely small ones and get fine bloom. Small and medium size bulbs will often - give you nearly as good flowers as larger ones but will bloom later. So if you plant various sizes all at the same time your season of bloom will last over a much longer period. For that reason I have selected some varieties here on which I can give you an assortment of sizes which if you plant at one time early in the season will give you a long blooming season in the same variety.

I am not giving the exact number of bulbs and sizes that will be in each collection as it will depend somewhat on the variety and the stock I have on hand but I will give you very good value. Just leave it to me and | guarantee you will be satisfied.

If you want some bulblets in place of part of the bulbs just say so, otherwise | will put in all bulbs in several different sizes. There will be at least one or two large ones in each set to give you the biggest bloom and then some smaller ones to follow on later in the season.

On some of these varieties even giving you big value there will not be many bulbs so you really should have two sets of each one. But one set of a kind will give you more flowers than you could get in any other way at the price. Remember it is 50 cents for an assortment of sizes of just one variety. You cannot use more than one variety in making up 50 cents worth. But you can have as many varieties as you want. Any five lots for $2.25. Any ten lots for $4.00 or any fifteen for $5.75. In addition to this I will put in a bulb or two of something good for you to try out.

Euphorbia Corolata (FLOWERING SPURGE)

This is a hardy perennial somewhat similar to double Baby's Breath but blossoms later. Blooms through August and September. Just the thing to go with glads or any other kind of flower. Will grow on most any kind of soil, even on dry sand, but good garden soil will make it very much better.

This is a plant that should be grown in every garden and commercial growers should plant it by the hundred. Absolutely hardy and I am sure you will like it. :

In the northern states | would suggest Euphorbia be planted early in the spring. In the south or where it does not freeze hard, fall planting would be perfectly all right.

Though Euphorbia is easy to handle, and there should be no reason for it not doing well, I have had some complaints about the roots not growing. I don't know why this is because if they are planted at once and given a good watering they should all grow. I have had no trouble with them myself. But in as much as I have had some complaints | no longer guarantee the roots. I do give good strong healthy roots and if given half a chance they should grow but if they do not grow | shall not be responsible.

Prices are 4 roots for 60 cents or one dozen for $1.25 prepaid. We do not sell less than four as they cannot be shipped with the gladiolus bulbs. We have to make a separate shipment.

100 roots $6.00 f.0.b. with 50 at the 100 rate. ; HOW TO CARE FOR BULBS IN THE FALL f

Dig them a month or more after they are through blooming. If the foliage stays green and — healthy it will do no harm to leave them till hard freezing weather. When you dig them cut the tops off immediately and place the bulbs in shallow trays in a cool airy place. 2-5 weeks after digging they should be dried and cured enough to take off the-old bulbs and bulblets.

After thoroughly drying them it is well to do something to kill any possible thrip that might be on the bulbs. Many people scatter napthalene flakes over them. .If you have only a few hundred bulbs I can send you a package of nearly two pounds for 50 cents prepaid. This will take care of up to two or three thousand bulbs. When you use this keep them in a fairly warm place, scatter on the napthalene, about | oz. to 100 bulbs, and cover them with a paper or cloth to confine the fumes. After about a month shake off the napthalene, which can be saved for another year, and then store the bulbs away in a cool place for the winter. : 3

Many people now are-using Rototox in which they soak the bulbs for a day or two. This will kill all thrip and eggs. This is also said to check disease. It is not poisonous to people and so is safer to use than bichloride, and it does not require a glass, earthen or wooden container to dip them in. For further information about this write Rototox, 813 Yale St., East Williston, N. Y.

Some people where they haven't too many bulbs soak them in Bichloride of Mercury in the fall after the bulbs are thoroughly cured. I think this will help to control any disease germs that may be on the bulbs and probably would kill any thrip besides.

- We do not hear near so much about thrip now as we did a few years ago. Most people are either using napthalene or soaking their bulbs and spraying them and are having fine results.

THRIP. If you are a beginner and don’t know what thrip is I will say that it is a very small black insect that sucks the juices from the buds so that they don’t open properly. This has caused a lot of trouble around the country but by using well known precautionary measures as above, it can be easily avoided and good glads can be grown.

The Best New Things of 1936

REWI FALLU. This is one of the most outstanding varieties | have seen this year. A deep red that grows over five feet tall with seven or more enormous, massive deep blood red flowers open at atime, with most of the remaining buds showing color. This makes every other deep red | have seen look very insignificant.

SHIRELY TEMPLE. This is a very beautiful heavily ruffled cream which grows six feet tall with several immense blooms open.

UNCAS. A dark orange that does not burn in hot sun. Opens eight or more and keeps its color and size to the tip.

RUBICON. A new commercial rose salmon or salmon scarlet that looks like an outstand- ing commercial. Was shown in wonderful form at the Canadian show, We are calling it Rub- icon at present but the name may be changed.

SIMCOE. A purple that I tried to buy several years ago but have just succeeded in get- ting it.

ELOISE. A new lavender from California that, on the San Francisco market brings a higher price than Minuet.

Another very beautiful small flowered variety that is not named yet is from C. W. Lef- fingwell, of California. A seedling of Orange Butterfly and similar to that variety except it is a beautiful salmon with yellow throat and lip and has straight stems.

The Palmer Varieties are improving all the time. I will confess that at one time | thought Palmer was slipping but my fears were all dispelled this year when I saw the magnificent seed- lings he had at the Canadian Show and later in the season, that I saw at his place. They are as finé as anything I have ever seen. I am introducing four of them this year and using two others as premium bulbs.

Some of the finest seedlings | have seen this year were from Bancroft Winsor of Massachu- setts. He has some very nice things coming along but I understand are not ready for introduction yet.

Among the varieties that have been on the market for a year or more, Jalna seems to be one of the most popular, It was just introduced last year but has gained a lot of friends this past season—one of the finest smokies | have ever seen opening up to twelve at a time. Regent is one of the very best bright reds opening eight to ten. Debonair, Duna, Wasaga and Rap- ture are becoming very popular as commercial varieties. I find that Heritage which has never done well during the hot weather was really fine this year later in the season. Solveig has been better than ever this year. There is no other large white with the beautiful ruffling this flower has. It has been rather difficult to handle sometimes but this year has been good. One of the best things I have seen at the shows, and also a fine commercial is Edith Robson. This variety is surely going places now that the price is getting down. Rosex is one of the very best rose scarlet varieties. It makes a long strong spike and when it gets a little cheaper willbe a wonderful cut flower variety. In yellow the very finest exhibition type is Golden Goddess. This has been simply magnificent with me this year. For exhibition nothing can touch it. For commercial and decorative purposes Amberglow is my favorite. A very beautiful color. For a smoky that is different Vagabond Prince is it. Everyone who sees this raves over it.

What looks like one of the finest commercials is Miss Alameda of Salbach’s, a beautiful salmon with blotch.

In whites Maid of Orleans:isthe coming commercial, though this year Star of Bethlehem has been better than usual and may give Maid of Orleans some competition when it gets a little lower in price. Various hybridizers around the country have some fine white seedlings coming along but I don’t know of any that are ready for distribution.

A rose pink one that seems to have a future is Maxwelton, very tall and straight and fine _head of large blooms.

Some fine blues and an orange red from Australia I think will be heard from later.

My descriptive catalog which will be out in January will give full details of all my new introductions. If you have any friends who are gladiolus growers I would appreciate their names. Also if you have any first class snapshots of your glads I would be very glad to have some for my catalog. For any that I can use | will give $3.00 worth of bulbs. If you have them send them On at once. é
