THE HARDY AMARYLLIS 
Lycoris Squamigera, called also Amaryllis 
Halli or The Magic Lily, is a fully hardy garden 
bulb. The flowers are handsome clustered trum¬ 
pets of a changeable shade between blue and 
rose. They appear on twenty inch stems in 
August, months after the foliage has disappeared. 
A rarity that is beautiful and interesting. Pkt. 
25c; special pkg. 60c; % oz. $1.00. 
THE TAHOKA DAISY 
First offering of what will prove, I believe, 
to be the most valuable novelty of the year. 
The flowers are splendid Daisies of pure blue- 
lavender, fading to rose, with golden yellow cen¬ 
ters that stay yellow. The foliage is finely lacini- 
ated and ferny, the flower stems of good length, 
and the blossoms carried continually from spring 
until frost. It is wonderful for cutting, long- 
lasting and remaining widely open. Treat as an 
annual. 20 inches. Pkt. 25e; special pkg. 60c; 
Va oz. $1.00. 
THE WINTER HARDY BEGONIA 
Begonia Evansiana. An almost frost-proof 
tuberous-rooted species from the mountain peaks 
of Java. Winters in the open ground at Phila¬ 
delphia, and is said to carry over with protection 
of mulching at Ottawa. Makes a most handsome 
branching plant to two feet, loaded with large 
flesh-pink flowers. Pkt. 25c; special pkg. 60c. 
THE SCARBOROUGH LILY 
Coming from South Africa, where it is called 
the Berg Lily, Vallota purpurea owes the “Scar¬ 
borough” part of its name to the fact that the 
first bulbs cultivated in England were washed 
ashore at Scarborough Head from the wreck of a 
Dutch ship. It is close to Amaryllis, but hardier. 
The large clustered flowers vary from pure bright 
scarlet to rich dark red, usually with white in¬ 
ner throat. Makes a famous potplant, or, planted 
deeply in sheltered places, is almost hardy out¬ 
side. A new offering. Pkt. 20c; special pkg. 50c. 
NUTTALLIA DECAPETALA 
Branched two-foot plants with large ten- 
petaled sweet scented flowers, ivory white, with 
great bunches of golden stamens. In the wild, 
the blossoms are like Water Lilies misplaced on 
the dry prairies. Biennial, fully hardy, and 
easily grown. Pkt. 20c; special pkg. 50c; oz. 
76c.
