 tory 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.

 plants for pot culture; of strong, luxuriant growth. The 

 great profusion of bloom produced in uninterrupted abund- 

 ance for weeks is astonishing. The flowers are of the purest 

 bright buttercup-yellow. (See cut. ) 

 Bowiei. Brilliant carmine rose. 



Grand Duchess. Comparatively new varieties of great 

 beauty, of dwarf, sturdy growth, throwing their large, ex- 

 quisite flowers well above the foliage. Extremely free-flow- 

 ering, 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. 



Price of any of the above 35 cts. per doz. ; $2. 50 per 100.
