Download or read book GLADIOLUS FOR PROFIT CLASSIC written by Raymond M. Champe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-05 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gladiolus for Profit There is just one point to touch on here, and that concerns bulblets. If possible, order bulblets to be shipped to you before Winter sets in and unpack and store each separate variety in a glass fruit jar or clean tin can. Cover and mix them thoroughly with fine, clean damp sand that has been first sifted through a fine wire mesh. Window screening does nicely, or one-eighth inch galvanized screening is O. K. After being so placed the sand should be kept damp, not moist, from time to time by a little water sprinkled on the surface. Bulblets so kept will germinate, readily in the Spring when planted and produce many more bulbs than bulblets that have been allowed to go through the winter in a dry condition. Sand must be damp, not moist; moist sand will cause them to mildew. Any bulbs or bulblets that ever develop mildew should be spread out for free air circulation and exposed tothe sun as Soon as possible, and left in this condition for several days until all signs of the mildew have disappeared.

Download or read book 1928 Descriptive List written by Champlain View Gardens and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-06 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from 1928 Descriptive List: Gladiolus and Delphiniums Quality OF bulbs. I think it is generally considered that northern grown bulbs are the best. The cool climate gives them a vigor that southern grown bulbs do not have as a rule. While I do not claim that we grow better bulbs than anyone else I have often found that new varieties that I buy do better the second season from the bulbs I grow here than they did from the original bulbs I have many letters from cust omers who say my bulbs have given very fine results. I always disinfect my bulbs before planting and plant on new land every year, which is necessary if the health and vigor of the bulbs is maintained. My bulbs this year are the finest and cleanest I have ever grown. Guarantee. Every bulb is guaranteed to be true to name and healthy. We are all human and so subject to mistakes and occasionally a bulb gets by that is not right. But in that case don't tell your neighbors but tell me and I will adjust the matter to your entire satisfaction. In fact, I guarantee satisfaction. I am not only trying to sell bulbs but also to make steady customers. My enemies (and I probably have some) won t buy of me anyway The only people to whom I can sell the second order are my friends, so I am going to try to make you a friend if you will give me a chance. The growers as a whole are a fine bunch of fellows and try to do the right thing. But there are some who are not so careful as they should be. It is no small job to grow several hundred varieties and keep them all absolutely true to name and to send out only good healthy bulbs. It requires eternal vigilance and personal supervision to have every thing satisfactory to the customer. But this is what I try to do, in fact, guarantee to give satisfaction. My bulbs this year are the finest I ever had. Order early. There is everything to gain and nothing to lose by ordering early. If you wait there is the possibility and in some varieties the strong probability of their being sold out long before spring. Some varieties are always sold out early and we can t tell beforehand just which ones they are going to be. Sometimes a grower will think a certain variety is especially good and will pick up all he can find. Or else the public will want a variety in quantity before there is stock enough to go around Then if you wait till spring as many do, we are always rushed with orders at that time and can t give the individual attention to them that we can if we have the orders earlier in the season.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Making Them Grow: A Treatise on the Rapid Propagation of the New and Higher Priced Gladioli The bulblets are encased in a hard shell and though some germinate easily, it seems to be in the nature of many to lie dormant for a year before growing. But time is an all-important factor and we must make them grow the first year if we are to reap the greatest profit. Among the fine ones, Purple Glory and Diener's Ameri can Beauty proved poor germinators and gave us only 40% and 80% respectively, till by use of the methods later described herein we. Have more than doubled this percentage of germination. Even with a small stock such an increase soon adds many hundreds of dollars to the value of the output.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping, multifaceted tale of a young Native American pulled between the cherished traditions of a heritage on the brink of extinction and an encroaching white culture, Gardens in the Dunes is the powerful story of one woman’s quest to reconcile two worlds that are diametrically opposed. At the center of this struggle is Indigo, who is ripped from her tribe, the Sand Lizard people, by white soldiers who destroy her home and family. Placed in a government school to learn the ways of a white child, Indigo is rescued by the kind-hearted Hattie and her worldly husband, Edward, who undertake to transform this complex, spirited girl into a “proper” young lady. Bit by bit, and through a wondrous journey that spans the European continent, traipses through the jungles of Brazil, and returns to the rich desert of Southwest America, Indigo bridges the gap between the two forces in her life and teaches her adoptive parents as much as, if not more than, she learns from them.
