Lily-of-the- Valley 
One of the most universally known and admired 
plants. The graceful spikes, with the dainty pure ° 
white bells, are a delight to the eye, and their | 
delicate fragrance is exquisite. Plants succeed | 
almost anywhere, but prefer a partly shaded situa- 
tion and rich soil. For house culture, plant rather 
thickly in pots or boxes, scatter some moss or other 
light material over the soil, which must not cover 
the crown; water well and set away in a dark, 
cold place where they will freeze, or bury pot 
in ground for several days. When brought to heat 
and light after a few weeks, the leaves and flowers 
willsoon appear. Ready for delivery in November.

cts. per dozen; $6.00 per 100, postpaid.

The memory of the “Blue Flag” of the old-time

lived in such surroundings, and while the “‘modern”’

else of these days, have yielded to the influence  — 
of improvement.
