LILY OF THE VALLEY. 
By availing ourselves of the modern method of cold storage we are enabled to supply forcing roots of this 
pretty decorative plant through the winter months. One advantage these retarded roots have over those handled 
in the ordinary way is the quick time in which the flowers are produced. We have seen dormant crowns put into 
strong heat and brought into beautiful bloom within three weeks, but we recommend si.\ weeks as the average 
time for a perfect flower spike.

A CURIOUS PLANT FROM CENTRAL ASIA. 
MONARCH OF THE EAST. (As originally named and offered by us. ) 
This remarkable plant exhibits one of those extraordinary traits in nature that few are able to understand, 
for the magnificent flowers actually come out of the dry bulb without being placed in soil and water. 
The flower sheath sometimes reaches a length of nearly two feet, is of a red-brown colour, tipped with red 
and yellow, whilst the inner parts of the flower are equally as brilliant. The bulb of this extraordinary plant 
needs only to be placed in some fancy receptacle, without water, in a warm room, or on the mantelshelf, when, 
without showing either leaves or roots, the flower makes its appearance, early m the year, thriving entirely upon 
the nourishment contained within the bulb. Large bulbs, gd. each. 
Decorated China Bowls for placing these bulbs in, price 6d., gd., and is. each.
