 most dazzling vermilion, with a yellow throat and broad

• •«••• TUBEROSES. » • • • o ® 



The ever popular Tuberose is so well known that but little description will be necessary. By 

 many they have been endorsed as the most fragrant of all the sweet-scented summer flowering 

 bulbs, and rightly too, for few flowers can equal the Tuberose in fragrance. They produce long 

 spikes of waxy-like pure white flowers, and to those who have never grown this popular favorite 

 would say, iu my opinion no flower garden is complete without a few stalks of Tuberoses, my 

 stock of bulbs isvery fine this year, and will bloom profusely the coming season.
