m

 pearly-white flowers. Bulbs should be kept warm an I 

 dry. and planted out in the middle of May. They « ill 

 then commence flowering in July. It is also admirably

EARLYFLOWERING BRANCHING 



MEXICAN TUBEROSE. 



A single white Tuberose. The flower spikes are very large 

 and evenly filled; it commences to flower in July and 

 August, throwing from two to five flower stems from 

 a Single bulb. The petals recurve gracefully, which adi Is 

 greatly to the size of the individual flower; it is entirely 

 free from the brown tint common to the old sort on the 

 back of the petals, being of the purest waxy-white, 

 making it most valuable for cut flowers. When lir<t 

 seen it might be said to resemble a Stephanotis, or some 

 species of Jessamine, as much as a Tuberose, both in ap- 

 pearance and fragrance, for the odor is less heavy than 

 that of the ordinary Tuberose. (See cut.) Price, 10c. 

 each, S1.00 per doz., $7.00 per 100, delivered free in U. S. 



Tuberose, "SILVER LEAF." 



Showy and effective, even when not in bloom, the foli- 

 age being distinctly striped, white and green. Each bulb 

 frequently throws up two or more spikes, 3 to 4 feet 

 high, each bearing from 25 to 40 pure white, waxy flow- 

 ers, much like an crange flower or Stephanotis. with a 

 delicate and enchanting perfume. They flower several 

 weeks earlier than double Tuberoses, and the bulbs bloom 

 year after year. Price (delivered free in tj. Sj, 7c. each. 

 75c. per doz., $5.00 per 100.

Price for any of the above Tigridias, oc. each, 50c. 

 per doz., -$4.00 per 100. 



This variety, introduced and named by us. has 

 proven so superior to the old tall double tuberose 

 that the latter has been practically crowded out 

 of existence. 



Henderson's Pearl Tuberose is of dwarf, stocky 

 growth, the flower spikes attaining a height of 

 about 2 feet, and are compactly filled for two- 

 thirds of their length with very large, perfectly 

 double flowers. 1 ' to 2 inches across, or nearly 

 twice the size of the old sort. The flowers have 

 the waxy-like substance of a Camellia, are glisten- 

 ing white and deliriously fragrant. The bulbs, 

 planted in the garden in May, in warm, rich -nil 

 m a sunny position, flower with great certainty 

 in the fall, when they are not only very decorative 

 but their agreeable perfume pervades their im- 

 mediate neighborhood. The cut-flower -pikes 

 are very effective when "vased" for room decora- 

 tion. If early flowers are wanted, the bulbs may 

 be started in pots in the house from February 

 to April, removing the plants to open ground 

 when it is warm enough in May. Price, extra 

 large flowering bulbs, 5c. each, 50c. per doz., 

 $3.00 per 100 (delivered free in the U. S.), 

 or if buyer pays carriage, 35c. per doz., $2.00 per 

 100.
