Akebia Quinata 
Hardy deciduous climbing vine; fragrant white flowers and edible fruit, in 
appearance like a very small banana. Each, 50c; four, $1.50. 
Isemena Calathina 
This unique and beautiful flowering bulbous plant from the mountains of Peru 
belongs to the Amaryllis family, but is much more easily raised. The large pearly 
white flowers are among the most unique and handsomest of bulbous plants. Plant 
out of doors in California. Large field-grown bulbs, each, 30c; ten, $2. 
New Hybrid Crinums 
The Crinums have flowers and bulbs somewhat resembling the Amaryllis. Many 
of the best species are tropical and can not, therefore, be grown where heavy 
frosts occur. Some twenty-five years ago my own work with the Crinums com- 
menced, and from this work new, beautiful, and more hardy varieties have been 
produced. 
The bulbs of all those here offered will thrive outdoors throughout most of Cali- 
fornia and similar climates, and anywhere if taken up in the Fall and kept dry 
through the Winter. Flowers very large, like Amaryllis, mostly purest white and 
pale rose; often fragrant. Beautiful new hybrids. Enormous bulbs weighing five 
to seven pounds. Each, $2; ten, $15. Vigorous offsets, each, 50c; ten, $3.50. 
A New Tritoma— "Exquisite" 
A most beautiful new dwarf, almost ever-blooming Tritoma, bearing yellow 
flowers, shaded crimson, in unusual abundance. Each, 50c; ten, $3.
