ESPECIALLY USEFUL TO FLORISTS. 



AMARYLLIS JOHNSONI. 



Grand Bermuda Grown Bulbs. {Ready for shipment in August.) 



Congenial conditions — climate and soil — produce a strong growing variety of Amaryllis, popu 

 larly known in the West India Isles as "The Spice Lily." Their immense flowers, richness of 

 coloring and regal habit are simply incomparable. The bulbs are very large, 9 to 15 inches in cir- 

 cumference, and produce with great certainty extra strong spikes of bloom, from 18 inches to 3 feet 

 high, bearing enormous trumpet-shaped flowers, averaging 6 to 10 inches across, of great substance, 

 of rich and glowing scarlet, intensified by contrasting with the wide white stripe through each petal. 

 Well adapted for pot culture in the window or greenhouse — spikes frequently each bearing 4 to 8 

 flowers. Often 2 and 3 spikes are produced at one time. (See cut.) 25c. each; $2. 50 doz.; $20.00
