MuscARi, Grape Hyacinth 



MuSCari (Grape Hyacinths) 



One of the prettiest of early spring flowering bulbs, growing 

 about 6 inches high, and throwing up numerous spikes of flowers, 

 which resemble a miniature inverted bunch of grapes. They are 

 perfectly hardy, and once planted take care of themselves, and 

 for this reason they are largely used for naturalizing, especially 

 amongst the grass and in woods or other shady places; while in 

 dumps or lines in the garden they are very effective. 8 to 12 

 bulbs in a 6-inch pan make a pretty plant for window decoration; 

 blooming about Easter. 

 Blue Grape Hyacinths. Clear blue. 40 cts. per doz.; $2.50 



per 100; $20.00 per 1000. 

 White Grape Hyacinths {Pearls of Spain). Pure white. 75 



cts. per doz.; S5.50 per 100; $50.00 per 1000. 

 Heavenly Blue Grape Hyacinths. A strong growing 

 variety producing much larger spikes of flowers than the 

 ordinary Blue Grape Hyacinth. Color clear light blue; very 

 showy. 50 cts. per doz.; S3. 50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 



OXALIS 



These are profuse bloomers, and very attractive in the house or 



conservatory during the winter. Plant 3 or 4 bulbs in a pot or 



hanging basket, which should be kept close to the light to prevent 



the foliage from growing too long. 



Bermuda Buttercup. Very free-flowering buttercup-yellow. 



Grand Duchess. Varieties of great beauty, of dwarf, sturdy 

 growth, throwing their large, exquisite flowers well above the 

 foliage. Extremely free-flowering, never being out of bloom 

 from November till June. One of the most desirable for window 

 culture. We offer them in three distinct colors, viz., Pink, 

 White and Lavender. 



Mixed Ozalis, containing all the colors. 



Price of any of the above 3 bulbs for 15 cts.; SO cts. per doz.; 

 $3.50 per 100. 



Double French Hybrid Ranunculus 



These beautiful dwarf-flowering bulbs delight in a cool, moist 

 atmosphere, and will repay extra care in cultivation. The curious 

 tooth-like bulb may be kept out of the ground without injury 

 for a long time, and if planted in spring in a cool, shady situation 

 will generally give satisfactory results. They are also desirable 

 for pot ciilture and for growing in frames in spring. 



We offer a splendid mixture containing all the brilliant colors 

 for which this strain is famous. 70 cts. per doz.; $5.00 per 100. 



OXALIS 



Snowdrops (Calanthus) 



The charming Snowdrop is the first of all flowers to herald 

 the approach of spring. It can frequently be seen in bloom when 

 the ground is white -with snow, as it takes every advantage, and 

 hastens to display its graceful snow-white bells before the winter ■ 

 has disappeared. In conjunction -ndth Chionodoxas and Scilla 

 Sibirica a matchless effect can be produced. As the bulbs are 

 small they should be planted liberally in order to obtain immediate 

 results. Banks, grassy slopes, edging or Rockwork will suit 

 all these bulbs. They should not be disturbed often if a fine dis- 

 play is desiired. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.50 per 100; S30.00 per 1000. 



PREPARED BULB FIBRE 



This material is very popular for growing bulbs in, and is espec- 

 ially adapted for use in the home, being clean and odorless, and

It contains all the necessary plant food for almost all kinds of 

 plants.

 75 cts. per peck; $2.50 per bushel.
