NEW DWARF CALLA " LITTLE GEM." 



CALLAS. 



Ethiopica, Lily of the Nile— We have 

 a very fine stock of this popular plant in all 

 sizes, which, considering their size and 

 strength, are very cheap. The culture of 

 this old favorite Lily is with us a specialty. 

 We annually use in our cut-flower business 

 thousands of its blossoms, so that at all times 

 in its season we have a large stock of bloom- 

 ing plants. From these we select the very 

 finest for shipping. Price, each, 25 cts. to 

 $1.00. 



Variegated Calla (Richardia Albo Ma- 

 culata) — A summer blooming variety of rare 

 beauty. The flowers are smaller than those 

 of the common Calla, and are creamy white, 

 but the most attractive feature of this plant 

 is its remarkably pretty, variegated foliage, 

 which is green and strikingly marked with 

 irregular blotches of white. Like Ethiopica, 

 the root is perennial, and is usually dormant 

 during winter, starling into growth again 

 early in spring, when it should be repotted 

 into fresh soil. 



Price, each, 25 cts.
