Gladiolus
Primulinus Hybrids
A few years ago the wild "Primulinus"
Gladiolus was discovered near Victoria
Falls, South Africa. As we know the mod-
ern garden varieties of to-day it was infe-
rior — but what was important it was rug-
ged, florif erous and bore the purest yellow
flowers known among Gladiolus. In conse-
quence it was taken in hand by several Gla-
diolus hybridizers in Europe who crossed
it with various allied species and choice
garden varieties; although the strong, wild
blood of Primulinus predominates these
hybrids, yet the opposite parents have had
so much influence that we describe the hy-
brids as follows: flowers of medium size,
borne profusely; colors, bright and varied
withan undertone of yellow— as pure yellow,
chamois, orange, buff, copper, yellow shot
with orange-red, buff with orange-rose,
orange-red, some with soft orange or golden
throats, etc.: growth vigorous, from 3 to 5
feet high; spikes long, graceful and well
furnished. All of which we offer in mixture.
(See cut.) Price, 7c. each; 75c. per doz. ;
$5.00 per 100.
The gorgeous colorings and gay marking
s have
caused
this section to be known as the "Butterfly"
Gladiolus.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
