Freesias are extremely valuable as cut-flowers, as they fill the 

 air with delicate perfume and their endurance is remarkable. 

 The bulbs are small and can be planted six to twelve in a pot. 

 Graceful in form, easily grown, and if planted early you can have 

 blooms for Thanksgiving and a later planting for Christmas. 



FREESIA, "PURITY." The flowers of this grand Frcesia are 

 almost twice the size of the old varieties and are pure, glistening 

 white. The stems are 10 to 12 inches long and very wiry, mak- 

 ing it most valuable for cutting. Each bulb should produce 

 from two to four stems of lovely, fragrant flowers. First size, 

 3 for 10 cts., 12 for 35 cts., 100 for $2. Largest size, 2 for 10 

 cts., 12 for 50 cts., 100 for $3, postpaid. 



FREESLV, ''FARDEL'S COLORED HYBRIDS." Until recently 

 Freesias could only be had in white, but we now have them in 

 separate colors, including orange, pink and lavender. The flowers 

 are as large and fragrant as the best white type and are most 

 attractive. 10 cts. each, 3 for 25 cts., 12 for $1, postpaid. 



Beautiful Calla Lilies (Richardias) 



Pot the roots in fresh soil containing well-rotted manure and 

 sand, and some sand should be immediately about the roots. Use 

 plenty of drainage material in the bottom of the pot and do not 

 have the pot too large or you will have few flowers. Callas need 

 to be rested from middle of June until September by letting them 

 dry gradually. When you repot use good, rich soil, give plenty 

 of water, light, and heat and the result will be satisfactory.
