"==sf-- ::!? TRITELIA UNIFLORA. 



TaiTELIA UMIFLQlJi, 



■ A most valuable addition to Winter-flowering bulbs for 

 house culture. Several bulbs can be planted in a 4 or 5-inch 

 pot; each will send up numerous flower stalks, producing 

 exquisite star-shaped blossoms; pure white, beautifully lined 

 with azure blue. The flowers follow each other successively, 

 and a pot or basket of these bulbs presents a lovely blooming 

 appearance all V/inter. This variety is also entirely hardy ; 

 can be planted in open ground, bloomingsplendidly in Spring.

A n almost unknown 

 class of plants in this 

 country. Lachenaliasare 

 especially adapted for 

 Winter bloom, requiring 

 only to be treated like 

 Hyacinths in pots. We 

 think the greatest value 

 of Lachenalias is in their 

 remarkably distinct ap- 

 pearance, and the fact that 

 the flowers remain in 

 bloom for upwards of two 

 m o n t h s. The curious 

 colors are a blending of 

 yellowand scarlet, shaded 

 with light green, the varie- 

 ties being made by a pre- 

 dominance of either color. 

 The foliage is also very 

 rare, being marked black 

 and reddish brown.

 beautifully tinged green.

Pendula. — Bright scarlet, peculiarly shaded. 15 cts. each.
