Ixias 



READY IN OCTOBER 



The Named Hybrid Ixias are so beautiful and rich in tints that no lover of flowers should be without them. 

 They are equally adapted for pots or the open ground, exceedingly free-flowering, and invaluable for cutting. 

 If planted out, they require rather more covering during winter than hyacinths. In pots their culture is the same 

 as that usually recommended for other bulbs. By reason of their curious forms and strange coloring, the Ixias 

 attract much attention. 



If ordered by mail, add 3 cts. per dozen, or 15 cts. per 100 for postage Each Doz. 100
