Double Dwarf 

 "pearl" . . 



TTuberose. 



This pure white, perfectl.v double, delightfully fra- 

 grant flower, invaluable for bouquets, is too well 

 known to need au.v description. It (lelights in a 

 strong, rich, deep, well-drained warm soil; manure, 

 heat and water are essential to its perfect develop- 

 ment. This variet.v, which we introduced and named, 

 grows only 24 inches, about half the height of the old 

 double sort, and the flowers are nearl.v twice the size 

 (often two inches in diameter), and imbricated like a 

 Camellia; deliciously fragrant. {See cut.) Extra 

 size bulbs, 4c. each, 35c. per doz., or by express, pur- 

 chaser paying carriage, 25c. per doz., $1.75 per 100.

 ing it must valuable for cut flowers. When first 

 seen, it might be said to resemble a Stephauotis or

 ance and fragrance. Price, 5c. each, 50c. per doz.
