Lily of the Valley 



The pure white exquisite flowers and pale 

 green foliage of this beautiful plant render it 

 one of the most useful and admired. It suc- 

 ceeds in the open ground in almost any situa- 

 tion, but prefers shade with plenty of mois- 

 ture: when once planted and established the 

 crowns keep on increasing each year. The 

 large ones flower each season without any at- 

 tention. However, a top dressing of manure 

 or rich soil in the Autumn will be found a 

 great advantage. Grown in pots and forced 

 into flower, they make a beautiful object for 

 room decoration; for house culture place 

 rather thickly in pots or boxes, with a little 

 light soil or fibrous matter scattered among 

 the roots, but not over the tops; then cover 

 with moss or some such substance, and place 

 outside until after a sharp frost; then bring 

 to window, and give plenty of heat and some 

 moisture, and the flowers and foliage will 

 soon appear. The crowns of Lily of the 

 Valley we offer are imported by us direct 

 from Berlin, Germany, and we have no 

 hesitation in saying they are far superior 

 for home planting to those received from 

 Hamburg, which stock is usually sent out 

 by the dealers.

Camassia Esculenta 



The "Quamash" of the Indians; very valuable for 

 shrubbery borders or wherever a clump of hardy flow- 

 ers is desirable. In early Spring the flower stocks 

 grow sturdily 2 to 3 feet high, and produce magnificent 

 spikes of starry-like blue flowers, each at least 2 

 inches across. A clump in bloom is a striking and 

 graceful sight. Can also be grown for Winter bloom- 

 ing, giving it the same treatment as Hyacinths.
