100 R. & J. FARQUHAR & CO., BOSTON. SUMMER FLOWERING BULBS. 
FANCY-LEAVED CALADIUMS. 
NEW AND RARE VARIETIES. 
Wherever high-class decorations are required during summer, these plants are indispen- 
sable. When grown in pots they may be used in the conservatory or the house with equal 
satisfaction. For table decorations, for jardinieres, and for enlivening groups of palms or 
ferns, they are most serviceable. They are quite as desirable for bedding purposes, and may 
be planted out after the middle of June in the sunniest situations if well watered, or in partial 
shade, but they should be sheltered from strong winds. The tubers should be started in the 
greenhouse in February or March, and if intended for out-door beds gradually hardened off 
before being transferred to the open ground.
