NERINES (Amaryllidae) 



These popular South African bullions 

 plants are among the most charming and 

 most useful of all early winter-flowering 

 plants. Coming into bloom as they do at a time wIk ii 

 bulbous flowers of real clioiceness are scarce (October 

 and November), we find that Nerines amply repay the 

 little care and attention which they require; samecullura 

 directions as amaryllis.

$10 per doz., $75 per 100.

$1 each, $10 per doz., JS75 per ico. 



Amaryllis, Grand Vittata Hybrids 



50 cts. each, $5 per doz., $40 per 100 



The stock that we offer of this grand flowering bulb are grown 

 from seed procured from the most reliable hybridists of this beau- 

 tiful plant, in England, Veitch & Kerr. They have been grown 

 for us under most favorable conditions in Bermuda, and are 

 thoroughly well-ripened bulbs — all flowering size. 



Our grower sends us a fine field report upon these bulbs — 

 stating the colors are exquisite, from purest white, all colors of red 

 and crimson, rose and pink striped and variegated. 



The bulbs will be sent out in mixture, no two varieties exactly 

 alike— this will save confusion in endless names. 



Amaryllis may be grown in a sunny window or greenhouse, by 

 following the cultural directions given below. 



In order to obtain fine specimens of Amaryllis the following method 



should be followed: On receipt of the bulbs in autumn they should be 



placed where thej' will be always slightly moist and warm — under the 



benches of a greenhouse, for example. Do not pot up the bulbs before 



the flower-buds appear; when first potted, give very little water, and 



promote growth by giving moderate bottom heat ; increase the supply 



of water as the plants progress. ^ , ^
