THE FAR-FAMED BELLA-DONNA AND GUERNSEY LILIES 



The flowers of the beautiful Guernsey Lily are brilliant scarlet, and in the sun's rays appear as if 

 spangled with gold-dust. The Bella-Donna Lily is white, flushed with rose purjjle, very handsome. 



These bulbs arrive from Guernsey earhj in September, with the flower-buds ready to expand, and by the 

 end of the month they are in full bloom. Orders should therefore be given before the 15th September.
