LYCORIS SQUAMIGERA 



or AMARYLLIS 

 HALLI 



, The Magic Lily of Japan. A perfectly hardy Amaryllis producing beautiful pink flowers 



D E s c R I p T I o N — Lycoris 

 Squamigera produces in 

 early spring attractive 

 green foliage which grows 

 until July when it ripens 

 off an/i disappears, and any 

 one not familiar with its 

 habits would think the bulb 

 had died, but about a month 

 later as if by magic the 

 flower stalks spring from 

 the ground to a height of 

 two or three feet, develop- 

 ing an umbel of large and 

 beautiful lily-shaped flow- 

 ers 3 to 4 inches across 

 and from eight to twelve 

 in number, of a delicate 

 lilac pink shaded with clear 

 blue. 



Culture — As the bulb 

 is perfectly hardy without 



any protection it can be 

 planted either in the fall 

 or spring, but we consider 

 the spring the best time 

 as the bulbs will have 

 splendid chance to get 

 established before flower- 

 ing time. Cover the crowns 

 about 4 inches. 



Very useful for the hardy border or 

 among shrubbery
