True Chinese Sacred Lily 



THE WATER FAIRY FLOWER OR "SHIN SIN FAR"— OR CHINESE "JOSS FLOWER'! 



The Great Chinese Sacred Lily is still one of the 

 most popular Winter-blooming: bulbs we have. They 

 grow very easily and are sure to bloom quickly; 

 they like moderate moisture and plenty of light and 

 heat. They grow nicely in pots of ordinary soil, 

 but the easiest and qviickest way to bloom them is 

 in a bowl of water with a few pebbles to hold the 

 bulbs in place. The bulbs are large, and each one 

 sends up from five to twelve flower stems bearing 

 great clusters of large pure white wax-like blos- 

 soms, with yellow centers and deliciously fragrant. 

 Some are single and others double, but all equally 

 beautiful, and they bloom so quickly and abim- 

 dantly they are in great demand everywhere. They 

 continue to bloom a long time, and by planting at 

 different times, a few weeks apart, you can have 

 flowers all Winter and Spring. Ours are the Genu- 

 ine Chinese Sacred Lily grown in China.

Chinese Sacred Lily or " Joss Flower "—growing in pebbles and water 



Narcissus Jonquilla, or Jonquils 



■ The Jonquils are lovely flowers, 12 to 18 inches high, and like the 

 hyacinths and crocus, bloom very early in the Spring. They are 

 bright golden yellow and delightfully sweet-scented. Splendid for 

 indoor Winter bloom, but especially fine for planting in groups and 

 clumps on the lawn, and in out-of-the-way places where they 

 become naturalized and annually continue to increase in numbers 

 and beauty. (See illustration.) 



DOUBCE JONQUILS-Extra fine,. deep yellow. 3c. each; 30c. per 



doz.; $2.00 per 100, postpaid. 

 SINGLE JONQUILS- Rich yellow, veiy fragrant. 6 for 10c. ; 15c. per 



doz.; $1.00 per 100, postpaid.

(Campernelle Rugulosus)

 of flowers in a very short time, and when planted in the garden 

 will bloom almost as early as the crocus.
