GRAND FREESIA 

 PURITY. 



A msgnlflcent, inowy, KlistenliiK white, of 

 very larce alie and great lenstta and strength of 

 Item: a dozen Bpraya making as fine a showing 

 as a dosen large white carnations, and can be 

 used wherever carnations can be used for deco 

 ratlve purposes. A truss bears from eight to 

 eleven buds, of which six are frequently open at 

 one time, making au Immense flower. It is of 

 great substance and bears shipping without 

 bruising. Stems can be cut two feet long and 

 are as rigid as sticks. It is very proilflc In 

 bloom, producing three to four side shoots ol 

 eight buds each besides the main flower. Bulbs 

 no bigger than dried wax beans produce as 

 large a flower as the largest bulbs, only the 

 stems are shorter. It propagates very freely, 

 producing from four to eight bulbs, all of which 

 will flower the next year. 



All growers of freesia should try this queen 

 of freesia for when once grown you will want 

 no other. 



Price for laree bulbs. $4.00 per 100} 

 $30.00 per 1000; 500 at 1000 rate. 

 Diacoant on 5000 and over.
