Excerpt from Gladiolus Studies, Vol. 1: Botany, History, and Evolution of the Gladiolus All the varieties included in these studies have been tested for more than one season, and thus a more satisfactory estimate of the merits of each variety has been obtained than would otherwise have been possible. If the work has seemed prolonged, it is due in part to the unusual and unavoidable changes in its supervision, but in larger measure to the difficulty encountered in procuring stock of varieties suspected of being synonymous with the varieties already known. The thanks of the American Gladiolus Society and of the Department of Floriculture at Cornell are due to all who have assisted in the work either by the donation of corms or by furnishing information. Those connected with the trials are indebted also to the present and the former officers of the society for their cooperation and support. The present bulletin is intended to trace the development of the gladi olus up to the present time. Succeeding bulletins will treat of its culture and of the varieties that have been tested in the Craig gardens of. The New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University.
