all kinds. A comparatively new va- 

 riety of flowering shrub, grown in San 

 Mateo and displayed in quantity for 

 the first time this year, is Leptosper- 

 mum Nichollii, a spring bloomer of ex- 

 cellent catting qualities. The flower is 

 a tiny deep red blossom, extremely ef- 

 fective in basket work, either alone or 

 combined with contrasting or harmoniz- 

 ing colors. Several striking baskets 

 were arranged for the special display 

 of the new bloom, which attracted much 

 favorable attention. It was this firm 

 that furnished the smilax wreaths en- 

 twined with typical California spring 

 flowers for the returning members of 

 the 364th Masonic Ambulance Corps, 

 which arrived in San Francisco last 

 week.

SPLENDENS 



Fischer's beautiful lavender Freesia — the 

 great commercial sort — the Freesia that can 

 be used for any and all purposes, from wed- 

 ding decorations to funeral work, where lav- 

 ender tone is wanted. 



Can be used alone or combined with other 

 tall flowers for decorative effect. Given rich 

 culture, will produce large blooms with 

 strong, stiff stems, two feet long and over, 

 with luxuriant foliage well up the stem. 

 Color is a lovely shade of bluish lavender, 

 varying slightly; but all are of equal beauty 

 and elegance. 



Great care was used in propagating this 

 stock and nothing but the choicest sorts 

 were used. Each sort had to possess the fol- 

 lowing qualities: Large size; long, strong 

 stems; healthy, vigorous growth; strong fra- 

 grance; beautiful color, and great keeping 

 qualities. When a well grown bench of this 

 superfine Freesia is In bloom, it Is a gt-and 

 sight. 



Don't stock up with poor Freeslas, when 



RUDOLPH FISCHER, 



stock of this most elegant Freesia can be 

 procured. 



All of my other varieties of Freeslas are 

 of the same fine stock, flowers of which are 

 eagerly bought by the best people of the 

 land at prices never before paid for Freeslas. 

 I have now stock of SPI.ENDENS in suffi- 

 cient quantity to offer It to the trade at a 

 lower price than was ever possible before. 

 Don't wait, as the price will not be any lower 

 for some time to come. If ever, as growing 

 conditions here in California are too uncer- 

 tain to grow valuable stock outside. There- 

 fore, stock win never be plentiful. Other 

 good varieties will follow in quick succes- 

 sion, as soon as stock is ready. 



Prices: $50.00 per lOOO; f7.00 per 100; $1.50 

 per docen. 250 lots at 1000 rates. Cash w)th 

 qrder. Usual trade discount to dealers. Only 

 good, flowering bulbs will be offered for sale.
