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 satis- 

 factory results. They are also desirable 

 for pot culture and for growing in frames 

 in spring. 



We offer a splendid mixture containing 

 all the brilliant colors for which this 

 strain is famous. 70 ccs. per doz.; $5.00 

 per 100. 



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 clumps 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.

 White Grape Hyacinths {Pearls oj Spain). Pure white. 50 cts. per doz.; $3.50 



per 100; $32.00 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. 60 cts. per doz.; $4.00 per 100; $37.50 per 1000. 



Oxaiis 



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. One of the finest of winter 

 flowering plants for pot culture; of strong, luxuriant 

 growth. The great profusion of bloom produced in 

 uninterrupted abundance for weeks is astonishing. 

 The flowers are of the purest bright buttercup-yellow. 

 Grand Duchess. Comparatively new varieties of 

 great beauty, of dwarf, sturdy growth, throwing their 

 large, exquisite flowers well above the foliage. Ex- 

 tremely 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.: 

 Grand Duchess, Pink.

Bermuda Buttercup Oxalis 



Prepared Bulb Fibre 



This material has become very popular for growing bulbs in, and is especially adapted 

 •for use in the home, being clean and odorless, and as it is light in weight, can be sent to a 

 distance at small expense. 



It contains all the necessary plant food for almost all kinds of bulbous plants. 



Before using it should be thoroughly moistened, and the bulbs planted in the same way 

 as if soil were used. A special feature of this material is that bulbs can be grown in it in 

 jardinieres, fern dishes and other non porous receptacles without drainage. In such cases it is 

 necessary to put a lew pieces of charcoal in the bottom of each receptacle to take up any 

 impurities, and after watering, the jardinieres or dishes should be turned on their side to 

 allow any surplus water to drain off. 



The treatment after planting in this material is the same as when planted in soil. 



50 cts. per \ peck; 75 cts. per peck; $2.50 per bushel. If wanted by Parcel Post add 

 20 cts. per peck.
