HANGING 

 BASKET OF 



OXALIS. 



The varieties of Oxalis we offer at this season are entirely 

 suitable for Winter blooming and pot culture. These lovely- 

 flowers are now among the most popular, and cannot be sur- 

 passed for hanging baskets, pots and positions calling for 

 graceful and effective flowering plants. The bulbs are of the 

 easiest culture, and a few in a five-inch pot or basket will 

 start off at once and soon be in flower, remaining so through- 

 out the Winter. Nothing offered for house culture will be 

 more likely to please than Oxalis.

TYPE OF PARROT TULIPS. 



BYILOQMS MLB BI1JL1BS. 



We desire to call special attention to the Byblooms, Bizards 

 and Breeders' types of Tulips, of which we offer a fine collec- 

 tion. These merit more general recognition from the vast 

 army of flower lovers. Their bloom somewhat resembles 

 that of the Gesneriana (see cut), and they wear all the gor- 

 geous livery of their species. They attain a height of from 

 one to two feet, the stems often branching and producing 

 several large blooms. Their flowering period is later than 

 the other sorts, which is a point in their favor.
