GLIBRANS, Importers and Growers of Flower Bulbs, 
GENERAL LIST OF 
Miscellaneous Bulbs. 
We have placed the following list in alphabetical order so that any variety wanted may be the more readily found. Many uncommon 
and most beautiful species are offered to the notice of those in search of rare and lovely bulbous plants. 
N.B. — Orders which embrace late ripening Bulbs will be executed in two parts — viz., the early ripened Bulbs will be forwarded on 
receipt of order, the late ripened ones following on their arrival later in the season. 
Some rare varieties cannot perhaps be lifted until very late in the season, and may not reach us until the end of the year, or even early 
next year. We mention this in case any should not be received until late. But as the stocks of some are limited, orders should reach us 
early.

and Autumn. The white variety (Umbellatus albus) is a gem. Pot firmly in rich sandy soil.

Attractive hardy Spring-flowering plants, of the easiest culture, succeeding in any soil and situation, and particularly adapted for

ALSTRCEMERIA (Pet uvian Lilies). 
These beautiful hardy. Summer-flowering border plants succeed best in a loamy, well-drained soil, the golden variety (Aurantiaca) 
preferring a damp situation. Their lovely Gladiolus-like spikes of bloom are very ornamental in the herbaceous border, or when grown 
in pots for indoor decoration, and are invaluable for cutting. When grown outdoors they do best if planted six to eight inches deep 
and left in the ground undisturbed for several years. 
Aurantiaca (flavum), golden yellow, streaked crimson, very showy; perfectly hardy per doz. 1/6; each 2d.

AMARYLLIS ( Hippeastrum) 
A beautiful class of plants, their large and lily-like blossoms, of various colours have a telling effect when mixed with dwarfer 
plants. A mixture of loam, leaf-mould, and well-rotted manure with some coarse sand is the best compost, and the pots should be well 
drained. Start the bulbs in heat, and when in growth water freely, and apply weak liquid manure occasionally. After flowering, water 
sparingly until quite dry, then store away under the stage until new leaves appear.
