The Polyanthus varieties of Narcissus are deliciously sweet-scented, of the easiest culture, very 

 free flowering and continue long in bloom; bearing from six to one dozen flowers each. South 

 of the freezing belt they are splendid for gardens and "naturalize" well. For growing in pots 

 or pans of soil or in shallow dishes in pebbles and water, they are especially adapted and can 

 be had in flower in the house from Christmas throughout the winter by bringing the pots of 

 rooted bulbs in from the frame or cellar every week or two. Per Per

Henderson's Selected Calla Lilies 



A well-known plant of easy culture for winter bloom. It makes a handsome house or window plant. 

 To aid profuse blooming keep dormant from the middle of June until the last of September; pot on 

 receipt in good, rich soil, using 6- to 8-inch pot, give light and heat in abundance. Both foliage and 

 flowers are attractive in this desirable winter bloomer. 

 Aetbiopica or Lily of the Nile. This old favorite White Calla Lily is too well known to require any 



description. We offer dry roots, as they are superior for forcing and winter-flowering purposes; 



they come into bloom quickly and require less room, making less foliage. Extra large bulbs, 35c 



each; S3. 50 per doz.; $25.00 per 100. 

 Elliotianna, Yellow. The yellow Calla; large rich, deep golden flowers often 4 to 5 inches across 



at the mouth; habit of growth and foliage like the old favorite white Calla excepting the leaves 



of Elliotianna are spotted with white. Dry bulbs, 35c each; $3.50 per doz.; $25.00 per 100. (Ready 



in November.) 

 Behmanni. The Pink Calla. A beautiful dwarf variety bearing rose pink flowers suitable for indoor 



culture only. Dormant roots. 60c each; $6.00 per dozen. (Ready in November.) 



Lily of the Valley 



(Ready for Delivery in November) 



Henderson's Extra Single Crown or "Pips." The finest grade of Crowns in the world for winter 

 flowering. They will bear 12 to 16 large bells on strong stalks, with foliage, even when forced for 

 extra early; the pips average large, plump and regular, with extra long roots. (See illustration.) 25 

 Crowns (1 bundle), $2.00; 100 Crowns, $7.00; $60.00 per 1000. 



Fortiu's Giant. This is the largest variety yet produced; it is only adapted for open ground plant- 

 ing, and may not show much superiority the first spring after planting, but by the second season, 

 or when it gets well established, it produces wonderfully luxuriant foliage and immense spikes of 

 purest white bells. Crowns, $1.00 per doz.; $7.50 per 100.
