Byzantine Wonder Lily 



This is not a Fairy Tale 

 but a FACT 



The above picture represents the plant in bloom taken from a photo. 

 This bulb blooms without either SOIL or water. Such exquisite, rosy- 

 tinted blossoms, shading to a pearly white in the calyx ornamented 

 with silvery stamens. Nothing excels the plant in bloom as room or 

 table decoration. As an unique and dainty living bouquet it has NO 

 equal. The perfume exhaled by it is delicate and refreshing. Bulbs 

 are simply placed in a bowl or dish. As soon as any flower withers 

 cut it off close to the bulb when a new one comes forth, each strong 

 bulb bearing from 9 to 12 flowers. When through flowering the bulbs 

 can be potted or planted out, when they develop a beautiful dark, 

 broad, undulated foliage.
