TRITELEIA 



Uniflora {Spring Star Flower). A pretty 

 little plant, suitable either for pot culture or 

 open border, grows about 6 inches high and 

 bears star-shaped flowers of a delicate blue- 

 white; fragrant; 20 cts. per doz.; $1.00 per 

 100; $7.50 per 1000. 



ZEPHYRANTHES 



(Zephyr Flowers, or Fair y Lilies) 



Beautiful dwarf bulbous plants, somewhat resembling the 

 Crocus in appearance; very effective for planting in the border 

 in May, flowering with great profusion during the summer. 

 They are also most suitable for pot culture. 6 bulbs clustered 

 in a 6-inch pot in the autumn will give a fine display during the 

 winter and spring. {Ready in October.) 

 Alba. Pure white. 6 cts. each; 60 cts. per doz.; $4.00 per 



100. 

 Rosea. Large rose-colored flowers. 10 cts. each; 75 cts. per 



doz. ; $6 00 per 100. 



SPIR^A OR ASTILBE 



{Beady in November or December) 

 As a pot plant for the cool conservatory or window garden 

 this is one of the most satisfactory and easiest to grow; the 

 clumps or roots should be put into pots or pans just large 

 enough to hold them, as soon as received in November or De- 

 cember, given a thorough watering and set outside in a sheltered 

 position and covered with ashes or litter. For Easter flowering 

 bring them into the house from eight to ten weeks in advance of 

 that date. For the best results keep them cool and give plenty 

 of water. Also very desirable for the hardy border, blooming 

 outdoors in June, and prefer a partially shaded position. 



Gladstone. This grand variety is a favorite with the leading 

 growers, who are unanimous in declaring it the finest in 

 existence. The plants form very symmetrical, bushy speci- 

 mens, and are remarkably free-flowering, a single clump pro- 

 ducing from 25 to 40 large snow-white trusses; forces very 

 easily. (See cut. ) Strong clumps, 20 cts. each; $1.50 per 

 doz. ; $10.00 per 100. 

 Queen Alexandra. A beautiful new variety, entirely dis- 

 tinct, the color being a soft pink. A strong grower, free- 

 flowering and forced almost as 

 easy as the other sorts. When 

 grown indoors it should be kept 

 cool when flowers are developing, 

 this being necessary to bring out the 

 delicate coloring. 25 cts. each; 

 $2.00 per doz. $12. 00 per 100. 



TRII.LIUM 



(Wood Lily, or Wake Robin) 



Excellent plants for ^hady posi- 

 tions in the hardy border, or in a 

 sub-aquatic position, flowering in early 

 spring. 



Erectum. This is the purple wood- 

 lily, the earliest to flower. 

 Grandiflorum. The large white, 

 probably the handsomest. 

 10 cts. each; $1.00 per doz.; 

 $6.00 per 100.
