Flowering Flag — Fleur de Lis. \ v 



Kardy spring blooming plants, bearing large, rich and various colored flowers. They are of 

 easy culture and thrive in any good garden soil. With the exception of Pavonia, Reticulata and 

 Susiana they are perfectly hardy without protection and require but little care, the three named are 

 half hardy and should receive a liberal covering which must be taken off early in spring. All the 

 varieties can be forced into early bloom in the house and make a cheerful display.
