ILLUSTRATED AND DESCRIPTIVE CATALOGUE 
Snondrop. This, the earliest of spring flowering bulbs, is universally admired for its elegant 
snow white drooping blossoms. 
Hyacinths. Among all the bulbs used for winter flowers the Hyacinth stands foremost on the list. 
Two methods are employed in flowering the Hyacinth in winter, one in glasses filled with 
w’ater, the other in pots or boxes of soil. 
Jonquils. Pretty varieties of the Narcissus, having a very agreeable fragrance; adapted to either 
pot or out-door culture, the bulbs being small six or eight may be put in a six inch pot. 
LILIUX LILY. The Liliums are entirely hardy, and with few exceptions quite fragrant, and most 
of the varieties are exceedingly beautiful. 
Auratum. Gold Banded Lily. A magnificent Japan lily. 
Candldum. Common White. 
Lanclfolium Album. White Japan; spotted, fragrant. 
Lancifolium Roseum. Rose spotted with crimson. 
Lanclfolium Rubrum. Red spotted. 
Tlgrlnum. fl pi Double Tiger Lily. Bright orange scarlet with dark spots. 
Lancifolium Punctatum. White and pink. 
IIarrish. (The Bermuda Easter Lily) — The flowers are large, trumpet shaped, pure waxy white, 
gracefully formed and delightfully fragrant. The ease with which it can be forced into flower 
in w’inter has made it wonderfully popular as a winter flower. It is grown extensively for 
church decorations at Easter. 
Lily of the Valley* The Lily of the Valley is as hardy as any plant can possibly be, and when 
planted in the open ground will increase pretty rapidly. 
Narcissus. Garden varieties. Admirably adapted for garden decoration in early spring. They are 
easily cultivated; hardy; very showy and fragrant. 
Tulips. Owing to late spring frosts, bedding plants cannot safely be planted before the early 
spring flowering bulbs are through blooming. Without these bulbs, for one or two month# of 
beautiful spring weather, our gardens would present a bare appearance. Nothing for the 
amount of money invested will give a more gorgeous show during early spring, and there is 
nothing more easily grown than the Tulip. They thrive well in almost any soil; should be 
planted during October and November.
