If you could see in reality, 
the flowers of these magnificent 
Amaryllis you would be amazed, 
first at their size and then at the 
brilliancy of the colorings, which 
range from deep reddish maroon 
to pure white and striped. Our 
bulbs. are grown from seed 
obtained several years ago from 
France through the Department 
of Agriculture at Washington, 
where they had tested these 
Amaryllis—as shown in the 
greenhouse in the illustration. 
Every bulb has a magnificent, 
flower-crowned stalk and some 
have two, with two or more 
flowers to each. Plant your 
bulb in good rich soil, mixed 
with a little sand and do not use 
a pot much larger than the bulb, 
for Amaryllis bloom best when 
they are pot-bound. Strong
