 20 WINTER BLOOMING BULBS 



SUBSCRI'BE JSfOW ^JSfD GET CHOICE BULBS 



Twelve Assorted Freesias 



Freesias are the most popular and charm- 

 ing bulbs for pot culture, flowering in winter 

 or spring in the conservatory or window 

 garden. Six or eight bulbs should be planted 

 in a four-inch pot. They force readily and 

 can be had in bloom by Christmas if desired. 

 The flowers produce six to eight on stems 

 about nine inches high, and are particularly 

 useful for cvitting. The blooms remain in 

 good condition, if kept in water, for two 

 weeks. The flowers are pure white, with a 

 yellow blotched throat, and are exquisitely 

 fragrant. 



Eight Bermuda Buttercup Oxalis 



An unrivaled winter-flowering pot plant 

 of easy culture. It is a strong and luxuri- 

 ant grower with handsome foliage. The 

 profusion of bloom produced in uninter- 

 rupted abundance for weeks is astonishing 

 and delightful. The flowers are of the 

 purest bright buttercup yellow. Properly 

 treated the plants will flower in six weeks 

 from the time the bulbs are set out. Well 

 grown plants have produced as high as 

 seventy flower stems at one time. 



There are no finer fld\x>ers for Ivindo^u culture. 



THESE BULBS will give best results if planted in the 

 summer or early fall. This makes our ofPer most seasonable 

 and one which every one of our present subscribers should 

 accept at once and have his time extended for one year.
