LILY OF THE VALLEY. 



Lily of the Valley. 



Ready Novemtoer 15. 



This charming little spring flower is a great favorite 

 for forcing. It can be had in bloom throughout the entire 



winter by planting in succession. Pips are best for forcing. 

 They should be^kept in a cool place until three or four 

 weeks' before wanted in flower, when they should be 

 planted in pot or flats, sphagnum being used instead of 

 soil. One or two nights' freezing will insure their bloom- 

 ing, the period of which can be hastened or retarded 

 according to the temperature of the house. 



} Elliott's Perfection Pips. 



These pips are the finest that can be produced and are 

 specially adapted tu early forcing, producing extra large 

 spikes and foliage, even at the earliest forcing. 50c. per 

 doz ; Jper bundle 2.5 pips, 60c. ; $2.00 per 100 ; S18.00 per 

 1000.
