niSCELLANEOUS BULBS & TUBERS. 



Lycoris Radiata, (Nerine Japonica) superb bulbous plant, in autumn, produces fine red flowers, 

 petals very much recurved, boldly projecting curved stamens, very attractive. Leaves 

 produced after the flower is over — per 100, 70c. ; per i,coo, §5.00. 

 Lycoris Radiata Alba, (Nerine Japonica, white). This beautiful new species of Lycoris was 

 recently discovered in the southern Japan and cannot fail to be appreciated in Europe 

 and America as a valuable addition to our autumn flowering bulbous plants, as it will be 

 a good companion plant to the south African Nerine. The white flower is large and 

 spreading with a slight primrose tinge at the bottom of the florets, the stem is stout and 

 robust and the whole plant has a noble appearance and will command a conspicuous place 

 in the conservatory. We think ourselves fortunate to be the introducers of so important 

 a novelty for our friends in Europe and America and think it will find a favoured place 

 amongst the flowering greenhouse plants of September and October. This white 

 Lycoris offers to the hybridizer great opportunities for improvement, and we have no 



doubt that within a few 

 years one or other of our 

 distant friends will be re- 

 turning to us a pure white 

 variety that we may raise 

 "stock" for them as the 

 bulbs of Lycoris multiply 

 in Japan rapidly — per 10, 

 75c. ; per 100, $6.50. 

 Lycoris Aurea, close ally of the 

 Lycoris radiata but pure 

 yellow instead of red, and 

 wider spreading, with petals 

 a little broader and not 

 recurving so much, stamens, 

 and pistils white with yel- 

 low anthers, very attractive, 

 blooming in autumn — 

 per 100, $5.co; per i,coo, 

 $40.00. 



Lycoris Sanguinea, flowers 

 orange-red produced in May 

 and June before the leaves 

 come out, 5-6 flowers on 

 one stalk smaller than the 

 Nerine Japonica and not 

 recurving at all — per 10, 

 20c. ; per 100, $1.70. 

 Lycoris Squamigera, 5-6 flowers 

 on one stalk purplish pink 

 with long stamens, very
