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 hybridistsof this beau- 

 tiful plant, in England, Veitch and 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 mi.xture, 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. See illustration.

In order to obtain fine specimens of Amaryllis the following method 

 should be followed: On receipt of the bulbs they should be placed 

 where they will be always slightly moist and warm — under the 

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

 fore the flower-buds appear ; when first potted, give very little wa- 

 ter, and promote growth by giving moderate bottom heat, increase 

 the supply of water as the plants progress.
