A New Trillium, 



•jt 



%H 



'Jt 



A DISTINCT form of Trillium grandiflorum, with flowers vary- 

 ing from light pink to deep rose. This new Trillium was 

 discovered by us in 1894, and since then we have fully tested 

 it to satisfy ourselves of its merit. We believe it to be a very dis- 

 tinct variety, and possibly a distinct species. It is a very strong 

 erower, with bulbs twice the size of T. grandiflorum, and with foliage 

 more like T. erectum. The flowers are very large, and vary from 

 light pink to deep rose when they open, afterward turning to deeper 

 rose. We have bloomed about 3,000 of them with T. grandiflorum 

 for comparison, and find it every way a more desirable Trillium, 

 growing much stronger and making more flowers to a plant, while 

 the color is remarkably distinct. 



12 Blooming Bulbs, by mail, for $1.00. 



We will send out these bulbs about August 1st, which is the 

 best time to plant, and will mail to any address 12 Blooming Bulbs 

 for $1.00 ; $6.00 per 100 by express. Special prices to the trade on

Those who desire can arrange with our Mr. F. L. Bassett to

 other native plants in a natural manner ; and thus insure success.
