A Veritable Hedge of 



MADONNA LILIES 



LILIUM CANDIDUM (Choice Northern Grown) 



The favorite lilies of the old-fashioned garden; produce strong, stiff 

 stems, studded with a mass of pure, glistening, white flowers, that enliven 

 the perennial flower garden or, for effects of contrasts with the beautiful 

 green shrubs of the June garden, are unequalled. 



Plant some bulbs during August and September and enjoy a big crop 

 of flowers next June or pot up, store in cold frame, and force for early 

 Winter in the greenhouse or conservatory. 



Extra Large bulbs 15c. each $1.50 doz. $10. per 100 

 Jumbo bulbs 25c. each $2.50 doz. $15. per 100 



GIANT FREESIA PURITY 



A charming little bulbous plant for window-garden, greenhouse or 

 conservatory. Has tall, stiff stem, bearing six to eight beautiful, snowy 

 white flowers. 



Plant a dozen bulbs in a 5-inch pot and enjoy a feast of blooms for 

 Christmas. Where a continuous display during Winter is desired, plant 

 a dozen or more pots and set in cold frames bringing in at intervals of two 

 weeks from October. Excellent for cutting, remaining in good condition a 

 week or more in water. Much superior to the popular Refracta Alba 

 Freesia, in size of flower, strength of stem (often measuring 20 inches), and 

 purity of color. 



Large fine plump bulbs 60c. doz. $3.50 per 100 $30. per 1000 

 Jumbo bulbs 75c. doz. $4.50 per 100 $40. per 1000 



On all orders amounting to $5. or more, express charges paid anywhere in United Slates

 customers in August. A postal will bring you one.
