SCIL,L,AS (Squills). 



SIblrica. This is one of the prettiest of early spring-blooming bulbs, of dwarf 

 haljit, with sprays of exquisite rich blue flowers. Grown in masses, in conjunction 

 with Crocus, Chionodoxas and Snowdrops, the effect is charming. Valuable 

 fur edging, and a dozen bulbs in a 5 inch pot make a pretty effect when grown 

 indoors. 20 els. per doz.; $1.25 per 100 ; |10.00 per 1000. 



Campanulata [Spanish Blue-bell or IVooJ Hyacinths). A beautiful spring- 

 fiowering bulb; spikes of bell-shaped flowers in blue, white and rose; fine for 

 naturalizing in the woods, etc.; perfectly hardy and requires no further care 

 when once planted. This is one of the few things that will thrive under pine trees.

 charming variety for grow- 

 ing in pots, producing 

 magnificent umbels of rich 

 blue and white flowers; un- 

 like the other sorts, this 

 variety is not hardy. 12 

 cts. each ; $1.25 per doz.; 

 $8 00 per 100. 

 If Scillas are wanted by 

 mail, add 15 cts. per \QQ for 

 postage. Dozens mailed with-

SPARAXIS. 



A beautiful class of bulbs, 

 allied to the Ixias, and re- 

 quiring the same treatment, 

 producing spikes of flowers 

 of the most exquisite and 

 brilliant colors. Mixed varie- 

 ties. 15 cts. per doz.; 75 

 Cts. per 100 ; $6. 00 per 1000. 



Elwes' Giant Snowdrops. 



SCILLA SiBIRICA. 



SciLLA Campanulata, 

 SNOTVDROPS (Galanthus). 



The charming Snowdrop is the first of all flowers to herald the ap- 

 proach of soring. It can frequently be seen in bloom when the ground 

 is white with snow, as it takes every advantage, and hastens to display 

 its graceful snow-white bells before the winter has disappeared. In 

 conjunction w^ith Chionodox.is and Scillas, a matchless effect can be 

 produced. As the bull)S are small, they should be planted liberally in 

 order to obtain immediate results. Banks, grassy slopes, edging or 

 rock-work will suit all of these bulbs. They should not be disturbed 

 often if a fine display is desired. 



Elwes' Giant. An exceedingly large and beautiful single variety; 

 flowers snow-white, with emerald-green lube. 15 cts. per doz • 75 

 cts. per 100; $6.50 per 1000. 

 Single. Pure wliiie graceful l)ell3 ; early flowering. 15 cts per doz • 



75 cts. per 100 ; $6.50 per 1000. 

 Double. Flowers perfectly double, pure white. 25 cts per doz • 



$1.50 per 100; S12 00 per 1000. 

 Giant Cassabah. The largest flowering of all the single Snow- 

 drops. Very showy. The bulbs we offer have been received from 

 Asia Minor, its native habitat. 30 cts. per doz.; $2.00 per 100: 

 $18.00 per 1000. 



If Snowdrops are wanted by mail add \Q cts. per \QQ for postage. 

 Dozens mailed without extra change. 



STERNBERGIA EUTEA. 



(Autumn Daflfodil.) 



Pretty, hardy autumn-flowering bulbs that deserve to be better 

 known. In appearance they resemble a fine yellow Crocus, and a 

 clump of a dozen or more together with a corresponding clump of 

 Autumn Crocus offered on page 19 gives a touch of sprint to the 

 garden in autumn. This is supposed by some writers to be the Lily of 

 Scripture, as it grows abundantly in the Holy Land, from whence our 

 stock was procured. 25 cts. per doz.; $1.50 per 100 ; $12 00 uer 

 1000. ^
