In our Illustrated Album of Bulbous Roots (see Notice, page 2) will be found figured most of the following 
MISCELLANEOUS BULBS AND TUBERS. 
Tiiere are no doubt many persons who peruse our Catalogue whose practical knowledge of flowering 
bulbs is limited to Hyacinths, Tulips, Crocuses, Narcissi, Gladioli, lilies, and perhaps a few others more 
or less popular. In addition to these, however, there is a vast number of other bulbous and tuberous- 
rooted plants (the following being merely a selection), of which nothing can exceed the brilliancy, the 
beauty, and the variety of their flowers, or the elegance and effectiveness of their foliage, and one or 
other of which at nearly every season of the year is an object of attraction. Their culture cannot by 
any means be considered difficult, most of the hardier varieties requiring a light porous soil, laying 
well to the aim, and slightly protected during winter ; while those which require in-door treatment should 
be grown in well-drained pots, in a mixture of leaf soil, loam, peat, and silver sand. 
Those who can make it convenient to call at our warehouse, can, through the medium of our 
Illustrated Album of Bulbous Hoots, make themselves acquainted with these interesting forms of floral 
beauty; while for those living at a distance we shall be happy to make a selection of the roots 
suitable to the accommodation they may possess, at. the prices enumerated, including only the bulbs and 
roots in this section of our Catalogue. A few of these are now ready to send out , but a large number of 
them being still in growth , it will be November before they can be despatched.
