depth; in colder climates, all spring and early summer; and, if planted in 
succession, will yield a wealth of blooms which no other flower can surpass in 
abundance, beauty, variety, or ease of culture. 
Plant six inches deep and two to six inches apart each way in beds, or two to 
six inches apart in rows, which may be one to four feet apart. 
Shasta Daisy — Alaska 
The whole plant, roots, stems, leaves, buds and flowers are gigantic, but compact 
and graceful in every respect. The marvelous combination of size, grace, 
glistening whiteness, abundance and general effectiveness of the flowers, which 
are borne on long, clean, strong stems, will place it at once far ahead of all others 
of its class. Under the ordinary field cultivation given Chrysanthemums, the 
flowers average four and a half lo five inches across on stems two lo three feel 
long, with thirty-eight to forty-two wide petals and a very small disc, and with 
proper cutting to prevent seeding, are produced perpetually, though more abun- 
dantly at the usual blooming season. 
The true "Alaska" has never been surpassed in size, beauty and abundance of 
flowers. From divisions of my original stock, each, 25c; ten, $1; hundred, $5. 
Omaha, Neb., March 17, 1919. — Thousands of good people enjoy your Shasta 
Daisies with me and carry and wear them away from our grounds. H. J. B. 
A New Hybrid Hemerocallis — The "Burbank" 
The "Lemon Lily," though bearing a small flower, has been considered one of 
the best until recently the "Grandillora Aurantiaca Major" was introduced. , And 
now comes a new one, the "Burbank," which in combination of size, great beauty 
of form and color of the flowers, and their amazing abundance and perpetual pro- 
duction, has never been equaled — a new form. Height, twelve to eighteen inches. 
Every little plant blooms abundantly from the first; the flowers open wide and 
flat, not irregular and tubular like all those heretofore known; flowers live to six 
inches across; purest sparkling pale-lemon yellow throughout. Increases rapidly 
Hardy everywhere. Each, 75c; three, $2. 
Hemerocallis Flava 
The best of the older ones, commonly known as the "Lemon Lily"; medium 
sized flowers of purest yellow in profusion. All of these Hemerocallis are peren- 
nials and hardy everywhere. Each, 30c; three, (iOc. 
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. 
Eureka, Nev., May 2, 1919. — The plants, bulbs, etc., which I got from you this 
spring, and also those I had you send to Grass Valley, have all grown wonderfully.
