MISS ELLA V. BAINES, The Woman Florist, SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 



The most popular, easy growing flower of the garden, not "touchy" about soil or conditions, but responding fine to good soil and 

 location by an increase in size and color of flowers. This grand flower is so nearly hardy that they can be planted in March for early 

 bloom and allowed to remain in ground till matured in fall. Plant them by the dozens c hundreds; mix them in your perennial beds; 

 they will bloom when perennials have finished. Our list is complete and the descriptions have been "boiled down" to give you a mind 

 picture of just how the flower looks. The riot of colors in some of the gorgeous flowers is hard to describe and space will not permit of 

 the necessary adjectives. The bulbs have made a fine growth this season and we are sure you will have good results if order is placed 

 with headquarters for your wants. Our bulbs have never been used for cut flowers, which insures you all the vitality that could be stored 

 up in a bulb by having its foliage to assist perfect development.
