 easiest cultivation, coming into bloom in 10 to 14 weeks from 

 the time the roots are potted up. Large, imported clumps. (Ready 

 in November.) If wanted by mail, add 15c to cover postage on 

 each root.

SPIREA GLADSTONE. 



A garden or greenhouse plant, also suitable for house culture. 

 It is not quite hardy enough to bear planting in the garden in 

 the fall, but as the bulbs can be kept in a dry state until spring, 

 they may then be planted and will produce an abundance of 

 flowers. Give them a rather shady place in the garden. Before 

 planting soak the bulbs in water for several hours.
