Our own direct Importation from China, will be ready for shipment early in October. 



Rermuda and California Grown Bulbs, though they can be sold at lower prices, 

 we do not offer, as our experience has been that they gave very poor satisfaction. 



The '"Shui Sin Far," or Water Fairy Flower, Joss Flower, or Flower of the Gods, 

 etc., as it is called by the Celestials, is a variety of Narcissus, bearing in lavish profusion 

 chaste flowers of silverv white with golden yellow cups. They are of exquisite beauty 

 and entrancing perfume. It is grown by the Chinese, according to their ancient customs, 

 to herald the advent of the new year, and as a symbol of good luck. 



The bulbs are grown by a method known only to themselves, whereby they attain 

 great size and vitality, ensuring luxuriant growth and immense spikes of flowers; in fact, 

 the incredibly short time required to bring bulbs into bloom (four to six weeks after 

 planting) is one of the wonders of nature. "You can almost see them grow," succeeding 

 almost everywhere and with everybody. They do well in pots of earth, but are more 

 novel and beautiful grown in shallow bowls of water, with enough fancy pebbles to 

 prevent them from toppling over when in bloom. (See cut.) 



We are importing direct from China the true large- flowering variety. Price (extra 

 large bulbs), 75c. doz.; $5.50 100; $48.00 1,000.
