CHINESE SACRED LILY. 



Chinese "Jos Flower"— a Symbol of Good Luck. j> j> -* 



The bulbs I supply are the true large-flowering variety from the Yalu River. They give from five to twelve spikes, 

 which bear clusters of large, perfect, waxy-white blossoms, with a yellow center, and of a powerful and delightful fra- 

 grance. They grow well in pots of soil, but the most popular way of blooming them is the Chinese method. Fill a 

 bowl with pebbles, in wliich place the bulb, setting it about one-half the depth, so that it will be held firmly, then fill with 

 water to the top of the pebbles and place in a warm, sunny window. The bulb will at once commence a rapid growth- 

 and bloom in three or five weeks. The bulbs are so large, and have so much vitality, they can be kept perfectly dry all 

 winter and planted a month before flowers are desired. Price for large bulbs, 1 2c. each.; 3 for 35c. ; 6 for 60c. 



SPECIAL MAMMOTH BULBS. 18c. each; 3 for 30c; 3 for 40c, postpaid. 



These bulbs are superior in every way to the bulbs sold by department stores.
