Convallaria (Lily of the Valley) 



Majalis. This is often starved and neglected and relegated to some 

 poor, out-of-the-way corner; but this popular and fragrant subject, 

 like most other plants, repays for being well treated, and if the bed 

 is given a liberal top-dressing of well-decayed manure in fall or early 

 spring it will show the effect by increased size, number and vigor of 

 the flowers. The stock we offer is strong clumps, especially suited 

 for outdoor planting. 60 cts. each; S6.00 per doz.; $45.00 per 100.
