Harrisii 



Now Ready for Delivery 



Oar first conBignmentB have just reached us and we are now filling early orders. Easter comes very early 

 next year, March 27, and a good many growers will have difficulty in getting Japan Longiflorum in flower in 

 tiiue, and there will be an extra demand for Harrisii in consequence. 



In view of the fact that crop is short, we advise those who have not already placed order to lose no time 

 doing so. Last year we were not able to meet the demand for oar selected Harrisii on late orders, so we urge 

 customers to order without delay. At present we have a good supply still to offer, and will be able to take care of 

 early orders, but there should be no delay in ordering, as there is sure to be a scarcity of good stock, especially 

 in the large sizes. 



We offer a 8*>lected stock of the original, true Harrisii for early forcing. These bulbs have been grown from the original pure 

 Harri(<ii and will be found splendid (.tock tor early forcing, for which puruose Harrisii is so valuable. We have had the ftock 

 inspected and are assured it is almof't absolutely pure and almost enfrely free trom disease. It is not stock picked up iudiscrim- 

 inately from different sources, but is grown from one stock, and will be found very superior to the ordinary Harrisii usually 

 offered, both in regard to freedom from disease and purity, and not the late type now so often furnished.

CLEMATIS JACKMANL 



I have noticed here a Clematis Jack- 

 iiiani which blooms six weeks earlier than 

 the rest. Please state if this is another 

 kind. Catalogues do not mention any- 

 thing of this kind. F. J. U. 



Clematis Jackmani and others of the 

 large flowering class, which contain con- 

 tiiderable blood of the summer blooming 

 G. lanuginosa, flower much earlier than 

 C. paniculata, which is more generally 

 oultivated than any other variety in the 

 United States. Most of the American 

 lursery and seed catalogues will be found 

 <o contain a good selection of clematis 

 of the Jackmani section. These latter 

 1 lower pretty closely together in summer, 

 four to six weeks ahead of the popular 

 Japanese variety, C. paniculata. C. W.
