 as abundantly as plants in 6-inch pots that have been kept growing or only semi-do'rmant.

common variety, and therefore can be used with telling effect in bouquets It is in every way 



superior as a house plant to the larger varieties.

Thousands of these are sold by us annually to florists for forcing, for early spring sales. 

 The spikes are very light and graceful and are very popular cut flowers in the London and 

 Paris markets. The bulbs are perfectly hardy, and if planted in frames in the fall, will give a 

 profitable crop of flowers in June. (See cut.) Price, 60c. per 100 ; $5. 00 per 1,000. 



SPANISH IRIS. For Forcing. 



These almost equal orchids in beauty of coloring and delicacy of perfume — the flowers are 

 of great beauty and cut in the bud state, last from one to two weeks in bloom — longer than any 

 other cut Iris. One root bears one stem bearing two flowers in succession a week apart ; the 

 faded flower does not show a mark on the stem when removed. All growers of cut flowers 

 should try these this season ; they are low priced, and if planted in boxes and placed in cold 

 frames until they show bud. then bring into heat they can be had in bloom from March on, 

 and will give great satisfaction. (Ready in September.) The Best Pure White, 65c. per
