Bulbs since the beginning of the war. 
The bulbs arrived in record time in ex-

in beds or borders outdoors, their large single or 
double flowers make a magnificent showing.

more tubers in a 6-inch pot will make a great show 
throughout the summer and fall. Foliage is 
highly ornamental. In red, white, rose, yellow and 
orange color , in both single and double shape.
