Amaryllis Lutea. 



(Sternbergia Lutea.) 



This is a most charming plant of a rich golden yellow; it 

 is perfectly hardy planted outside, increases rapidly and 

 blooms year after year with increased vigor and be'auty. 

 Its great point of merit, however, is that it blooms in 

 the fall from September to October, when planted outf 

 potted in soil, or grown in water. It is a veritable 

 water Xymph, blooming in water as readily and quickly 

 as the Chinese Sacred Lily, also when plunged in moist 

 moss. Plant 3 in a 4 inch pot. or % dozen in bowl with 

 pebbles and water. The bulbs are about size of a Tulip. 

 A clump of these for fall blooming after all other flowers 

 are killed is invaluable. 3 for IOc, 6 for 15c. 



Hemerocaltis Flava. 



Golden Yellow, sweet scented day Lily. This is a hardy 

 plant, thriving and blooming profusely year after year 

 without care or protection. Potted in'the fall or early 

 winter and treated like the Hyacinth, it will burst in 

 bloom by Easter. The flowers are perfect Lily shaped, 

 golden yellow and delightfully sweet seen ted. After 

 blooming in the house the plants can be planted out in 

 the early spring, and they will thrive without care. I 

 recommend this plant as one sure to please you. Strong 

 plants for forcing, 15c. each; 2 for 25c; $1.25 per 

 doz.; $6.00 per 100 by express
