SUMMER FLOWERING BULBS 



CALADIUM ESCULENTUM 



"Elephant's Ear." Grand tropical-looking plant. A favorite for specimens on the lawn, or for 

 bordering large sub-tropical groups. They produce enormous leaves, frequently 4 feet long by 

 3 feet wide; height, 4 to 5 feet. Plant after tie ground has warmed up, and take up before frost. 



Extra Size. Price, 40c each; $4.00 doz. 



CINNAMON VINE 



A beautiful, hardy climber for anything on which tie vines can twine; it grows from 15 to 30 

 feet high, and when established the vines attain a much greater length. The leaves are green, 

 thick and glossy, always clean, healthy and free from insects. The white flowers, while insig- 

 nificant, emit a delightful cinnamon-like perfume. The roots are quite hardy and, although the 

 stems die down in winter, the vines shoot up with great rapidity in the spring, and cover trellises 

 or arbors quite early in the season. 



Price, extra large, 2-year-old roots, 20c each; $2.00 doz. 



CRINUM Kirkii 



Produces flowers of the greatest beauty. Usually two flower stalks of dark purplish color are 

 sent up at tie same time, each bearing a large umbel of enormous lily-like flowers of white, 

 with a reddish purple stripe through the center. 



Extra large bulbs, 75c each; $7.50 doz. 



MADEIRA VINE 



The old favorite, "Climbing Mignonette," so much prized for porches and arbors on account of 

 its rapid growth and freedom from insects. Thick, glossy leaves, and long, hanging stems of 

 feathery, fragrant, white flowers. The tubers we offer are selected large size. 



Price, 15c each; $1.50 doz.; $12.00 per 100. 



Six Bulbs of a Variety Sold at the Dozen Rate, 25 at the Hundred Rate. Our pamphlet
