LIST OF SPRING BULBS. 



29 



MADERIA VINE. 



A tuberous-rooted climber of very rapid growth. From a few tubers suffi- 

 cient vines will be produced to cover the side of a house. Flowers white 

 and very fragrant; foliage of a glossy green color. 5 cts. each, 50 cts. per 

 dozen; free by mail at these prices. 



GLADIOLUS. 



These fine summer or fall flowering bulbs produce blooms which embrace 

 every shade of color, and some of them are marvels of beauty; great improve- 

 ments have been made in this flower during the past few years. They are of 

 the easiest culture and produce their brilliant spikes the first year. As soon 

 in the spring as the ground is sufficiently warm and dry, make plantings at 

 intervals of two weeks during the spring months, whereby a succession of 

 bloom will be had from mid-summer until frosts. In the fall the bulbs can 

 be taken up and stored over winter in any dry place, and they will be ready 

 for planting the next season. Nothing gives finer results in comparison with 

 the moderate amount of care and expense required. Free by mail at prices 

 of single bulbs.

 TUBEROSES. 



A universal favorite, and largely grown on account of its delightful fra- 

 grance. The double flowers are of a beautiful pure waxy white color, and 

 grow on tall stems, each producing a dozen or more flowers. The Excelsior 

 Pearl are the most dwarf and compact in habit, and the most suitable for 

 growing in pots and forcing. The Double Italian are produced on quite tall 

 stems, and are preferable for planting in the open ground. 



Excelsior Pearl. Very large, choice and well cured bulbs. 6 cts. each; 

 60 cts. per dozen. 



Double Italian. Similar to the above in quality, but somewhat larger. 

 6 cts. each; 60 cts. per dozen. 



Either variety sent by mail, postage free, 8 cts. each, or 75 cts. per dozen. 

 By express $2.50 per 100.
