EVERYTHING FOR THE GARDEN — Flower Bulbs 



Summer Flowering Bulbs 



Produce Quick Results — Very Showy — Easy Culture 



The bulbs offered on this page include some of our showiest garden flowers. They are of easiest culture; planted in spring 

 in good garden soil, they flower with great certainty during the summer and fall. After the tojJS have been killed off by frost, all 

 of the bulbs (with the exception of Dielytra and Cinnamon Vine) should be taken up and stored in the cellar over winter. 



If the planting season should have become well advanced, those who have neglected to plant flower seeds will find that they 

 may still have sightly flower beds on the lawn or in the garden by planting these bulbs. They also add a dash of color to the 

 hardy border. 



We deliver, transportation paid, all bulbs listed on this page (with the exception of Caladium and Crinum) at single 

 and dozen rates. Purchaser pays transportation charges on hundred lots. (See zone rates on page 1.)

Yellow Calla Elliotianna 



The Yellow Calla is considered the most beautiful of all the Callas. The rich deep golden 

 flowers which are produced in abundance often measure from 4 to 5 inches across at the 

 mouth. The foliage is most attractively spotted so that it is even a very showy house plant 

 when not in bloom. The plant averages about two feet in height. They can be 

 planted in the open ground in the spring when danger from frost is over and treated in 

 the same manner as Gladi- 

 olus and Tuberose bulbs.
