LILIUN HARRISII 



LET US 



(THE BERMUDA EASTER LILY) 

 SUPPLY YOUR WANTS IN LILIES THIS SEASON 





Wt think we can make it to your advantage to do so^ as regardi both quality and price. . 



The stock that we offer is not gathered indiscriminately from all kinds of sources, but is grown for us by a few selected grow- 

 ers whose stocks have been worked up from the true, original stock. In order to insure the health of the product, the bulbs are not 

 grown on the same field oftener than one season, other crops being grown on the field the preceding year. The ground it thor- 

 oughly manured when the previous crop is grown, leaving it in a high state of cultivation, and when the lily bmbs are planted 

 no fresh manure is used; this prevents disease and insures a crop of strong, healthy bulbs. 



In addition to this, we do not dig our bulbs as early as they are usually dug, but leave them in the ground until they are 

 thoroughly ripened and matured. When Harrisii is good it leaves littfe to be desired. There is very little, if any, stock obtain- 

 able as good as the stock that we are offering. We are supplying only this one grade of selected stodk and when this is disposed 

 of we ^all have no more to offer. 



While the quality of the stock that we offer is of the highest, our prices are as low as, or lower than, the prices of those who 

 offer the ordinary stock gathered from indiscriminate sources. We are sure buyers will find our stock very satisfactory, and 

 much more so than the Japan-grown Longiflorum, which has badly deteriorated in recent years. 



Bear in mind that we were the original introducers of Harrisii in Bermuda, and that we have exceptional facilit i es for 

 obtaining our present supplies. Also take note that the smallest bulbs that we offer are 6-7 inch bulbs, not 5-7 inch, as usually 

 offered. 



6- 7 inch bulbs, 335 to the case, $15.00 per case; full thousand lots, $ 40.00 per 1000 



7- 9 inch bulbs, 200 to the case, 16.00 per case; full thousand lots, 75.00 per 1000 

 9-11 inch bulbs, 100 to the case, 18.00 per case; full thousand lot%_ 175.00 per 1000 "'^

following each other, the two first with 

 excess of rain and cold and the last 

 spoiled by excess of heat and lack of 

 rain, it may well be wondered what 

 may be the result of next season should 

 the summer of 1912 unfortunately 

 prove to be unfavorable for the pro- 

 duction of seeds. It would be so dis- 

 astrous that we may well hope that 

 seed growers and gardeners may be 

 saved from the experience. ' '
