PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.— BULBS. 



AHARYLLIS, 



"The Knight's Star Lily.' 



Probably the most magnificent and gorgeous flowering bulbous 

 plants known. Their immense flowers, richness of coloring and 

 regal habit are simply incomparable. They throw up spikes from 

 8 inches to 3 feet high, bearing enormous trumpet shaped flowers, 

 averaging 6 to 10 inches across, of great substance, some being of 

 rich and glowing colors— others delicately shaded and superbly 

 veined. For pot culture in the window, conservatory or green- 

 house they are well adapted, and when in bloom in the winter 

 and spring months, no flower can approach their beauty (See 

 Cut.)
