Burbank Giant Hybrid Amaryllis 
"The Portola" 
(provisional name) 
This Amaryllis is the most gigantic ever 
offered, having an immense flat flower 
measuring full nine inches across. 
The blooms are pure white ground-lined 
and flaked with carmine. The petals are 
exceptionally broad. 
In addition to its immense size, this is 
one of the greatest bloomers and is a 
most vigorous and healthy plant. The 
flowers when cut will keep a long time. 
The bulbs are prodigious bearers, hav- 
ing several stocks to a bulb and four flow- 
ers to a stock. 
The blooming period is very long, pro- 
ducing flowers throughout the entire Am- 
aryllis season. The foliage is broad, 
strong and of a light green shade. 
Bulbs $3 each; $25 per ten. 
Amaryllis Seedlings 
(Burbank 's Giant Hybrid) 
These giant seedlings, while generally 
inferior to the specially named varieties, 
are, nevertheless, much superior to those 
obtainable from any other source. The 
varieties are mixed, as are the shades and 
colors in general, but are somewhat smaller 
in size than the specially named varieties. 
They are much larger than the ordinary 
varieties and to those who like a mixture 
of colors and sizes these offer a most mag- 
nificent sight when grown in beds. 
Bulbs $1 each; $6 per ten.
