Miscellaneous Bulbs and Roots 



FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR SUMMER-FLOWERING 



AMARYLLIS 



Amaryllis, Grand Vittata Hybrids 



60 ct8. each. $5 per doi., $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 

 beautiful 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 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 on page 115.
