HORSESHOE BRAND LILIUISI FORMOSUM 



From the islands soutli of Japan. These bulbs vary in qual- 

 ity and owing to the mixture of varieties do not flower uni- 

 form. They are much earlier, however, than any other lily 

 varieties and are especially recommended for florists who do 

 not have much heat, for Easter forcing 1913 (Easter being 

 March 23rd). The Horseshoe Brand Formosas will contain 

 as little mixture as possible in 1912 and will be very care- 

 fully irraded. Tliev are practic.illy free from disease.

 every year.

HORSESHOE BRAND SPECIOSUM ALBUM 



The Album or white Speciosum is the only white variety 

 which is hardy from Japan. The bulbs are not plentiful and 

 must be cultivated longer than the other varieties — therefore 

 the higher prices. If grown well, they are a very dainty lily.

HORSESHOE BRAND HARRISII 



From tlic celebrated fields of Messrs. Stephens Brotiiers, 

 Paget, Bermuda. Tliis strain of Harrisii is improving every 

 year and will be very suitable for the early Easter, 1913. 

 The prices have been made extra low in small sizes because 

 there are more good quality bulbs of small size than there are 

 large ones, and as bulbs over five inches are not desirable for 

 l)lanting purposes, the prices have been reduced specially to 

 dispose of the crop. They are very good bulbs — well grown, 

 sound and properly packed, and should be a very good in- 

 vestment for the grower this year. All Harrisii prices are 

 quoted f. o. b. New York only. Terms tliree months or 2% 

 10 days. A special cash price will be granted for cash re- 

 ceived before July 1st. Any deliveries which may be for 

 any proper reason unsatisfactory can be returned to us at 

 once, at our expense, and money will be promptly refunded.
