 COOPERIA PEDUNCULATA. 



Giant Fairy Lily. 



A native of Zanzibar, but hardy and robust enough 

 to thrive and bloom magnificently in the open ground 

 during summer. The bulbs attain gigantic proportions 

 and may be lifted at the approach of frost and stored 

 in a dry place, free from frost, during winter; or better 

 still, kept permanently in large pots, which can be 

 plunged out in a moist and partially shaded place in sum- 

 mer. The foliage is very ornamental, being of the form 

 and size of corn blades, deep green in color with waved 

 edges, and disposed in the form of a symmetrical rosette. 

 The beautiful lily-like flowers are borne in huge umbels 

 of a dozen or more, on dark purple stems, eighteen to 

 twenty inches high. The individual flowers are of the 

 size and shape of those of the well-known Madonna Lily 

 (Lilium candidum) and are pure white, with a broad, 

 crimson-purple stripe down the centre of each petal. 

 Taken all in all this is one of the finest bulbs cultivated. 

 Large bulbs, 3 inches in diameter, ea., 50c, {Postage 10c. 

 each eootra.) 



A lovely and distinct bulbous plant, producing large, 

 white, sweet-scented blooms, resembling a Zephyran- 

 thus but much larger and more profuse. The bulb is as 

 large and solid as a Hyacinth, and is so vigorous that 

 it may be said to throw up its graceful primrose-scented 

 blooms after every rain. The leaves are long, flat and 

 curiously twisted, and the flowers are peculiar not only in 

 size, purity and fragrance, but also in opening for the 

 first time during the evening, remaining in perfection 

 for several days, if cut and placed in water. The plant 

 is quite hardy and may be planted out as early as onions, 

 but should be lifted and taken inside before the ground 

 freezes in the fall. Excellent for groups, edgings or 

 borders. Should be planted in every garden. "We offer 

 only the genuine Cooperia pedunculata, which is much 

 finer in size of bloom, purity of color and floriferous- 

 ness to other species, such as C. Drmnmondi and C. 

 Oberewetterii, which are often sent out in its place. 

 Strong nursery grown bulbs, much superior to collected 

 specimens usually sent out, ea., 10c, 3 for 25c; doz. 75c; 

 100, $5.00. 



Galtonia (Hyacinthus) Candicans. 



Cape or Summer Hyacinth. 



A gigantic spe- 

 cies of Hyacinth 

 growing three to 

 five feet high and 

 producing spikes 

 of pure white 

 flowers over two 

 feet in length dur- 

 ing August and 

 September. Per- 

 fect hardy and 

 sure to grow and 

 bloom the first sea- 

 son. They can be 

 planted in beds or 

 groups. A few 

 planted in the 

 centre of a bed of 

 Gladiolusor lower 

 growing annual r. 

 plants, is very ' _ 

 effective. It is 

 especially 

 adapted to cemetery planting, as the glossy foliage and 

 beautiful white bloom is particularly appropriate.
