lilies arive it should be mulched with 6 or 8 inches of leaves or manure so the

Calla Aethiopica, or Lily of the Nile. This old favorite White Calla Lily is too 
well known to require any description. We offer dry roots, as they are su- 
perior for forcing and winter-flowering purposes; they come into bloom quickly 
and require less room making less foliage. Extra large bulbs, 35c. each, $3.50 
per doz. 
The Godfrey Everblooming Calla. This new hybrid is a true ever-blooming 
variety. A good plant produces an astonishing quantity of large, snow-white, 
slightly fragrant flowers. Compared with the ordinary white Calla, it gives 
three flowers to one, the flower being equally large, of perfect form and very 
much whiter. Properly treated, the same plant will grow and bloom with- 
out ceasing. The plant is of dwarf, compact, strong growth, about 18 inches 
high, with an abundance of dark green leaves. Dormant bulbs, 35c. each, 
$3.50 per doz. 
Yellow Calla, Elliotianna. The finest yellow Calla; large rich, deep golden 
flowers often 4 to 5 inches across at the mouth; habit of growth and foliage 
like the old favorite white Calla excepting the leaves of Elliotianna are spotted 
with white. Dry bulbs, 40c. each, $4.00 per doz.
