Perhaps one of the finest new bulbs lately introduced. Begins 

 to grow immediately after planting, and produces in great pro- 

 fusion, dense clusters of Long tubular flowers of a rich golden 

 yellow. They possess the most exquisite fragrance, and the 

 blooms last for a long time if placed in water. Asa pot plant 

 they are very useful, and in the garden will prove also valuable, 

 increasing in numbers rapidly. Being the first year these 

 bulbs are offered, the supply is limited, so would suggest early 

 orders. 



20 cents each; 3 for 50 cents; 7 for $1.00, postpaid. i 



LILIES. 



SNAKE LILY.— (Sauromatum Guttatum.) 



A most remarkable flower, often measuring thirty inches in length, peculiarly 

 twisted in eccentric forms. It is somewhat in the shape of a Calla. The inside 

 of the flower, however, is of a peculiar yellow color profusely spotted with large 

 purple and brown dots, while the back of the flower is of metallic brown. The 

 spadix often measures fifteen inches in length and of a peculiar frosty purplish 

 brown color. Altogether one of the strangest flowers to be seen. This plant 

 makes an exceedingly ornamental subject, the fine large Palm-like leaves be- 

 ing produced in succession throughout the season. The bulbs can be lifted in 

 the tall and increase in size from year to year. Should be planted 6 inches 

 deep ; enjoys plenty of water. Fine as a pot plant and still better in the garden. 



Large Bulbs, 40 cents each; 3 for $i.oo, postpaid.
