SPRING STAR FLOWER—Triteleia coerulea 
A splendid little bulb flower, easily grown and 
free blooming. The blossoms are up-facing 
stars, sometimes showing palest blue suf¬ 
fusions, or again deepening to rich indigo. 
Fully garden hardy here without protection. 
Cover with straw or litter in exposed loca¬ 
tions further north. It forces readily, also, 
and blooms repeatedly for many weeks. A 
pot of it will be appreciated in any window. 
4 for 25c; 10 for 50c; 25 for $1.00. 
BRODIAE BLEND—The rather tall, slender 
stems bear clusters of waxy flowers that vary 
from close trumpets to wide stars, according 
to species, and in color run from pure and 
tinted white to lilac, lavender and purple. 
Then there are kinds that are close to blue 
indigo or to rosy pink, and others are richest 
yellow. They are long-lived in any well- 
drained soil, and will thrive in light shade. 
4 for 25c; 10 for 50c; 21 for $1.00. 
CAMASSIA LEICHTLINI — The flowers are 
perfect stars, sometimes an inch and a half 
across, and each tall, airy, loosely formed 
spike carries many of them widely open at 
one time. The spikes are often four feet tall, 
and may bear 100 blossoms. The bulbs are 
fully hardy anywhere and the season of bloom 
is long. Mixed colors, including white, rich 
cream, pale lavender and gentian blue. Cam- 
assias can hardly be recommended too highly. 
2 for 25c; 10 for $1.00. 
ZYGADENUS FREMONTI—A fully hardy 
bulb, and a real beauty. Very like a Camas- 
sia. Three foot sprays of large soft yellow 
flowers with darker centers. 2 for 25c; 10 
for $1.00. 
> TULIPS, PEERLESS BLEND—A wonderful 
, trial ground mixture of the long-stemmed 
kinds that flower so gloriously in late May 
and early June. At least one hundred different 
finest named sorts, grown separately, have 
been blended here to give a proper balance 
of all of the possible hues and color tones. 
The range is from cream, primrose and golden 
yellow to bronze, orange and coffee brown; 
from palest flesh, through salmon pink to 
strawberry, rose, scarlet and maroon. Then 
there are all the soft lavender, clear blue, 
smoky violet and rich purple varieties, beside 
others fantastically marbled and striped. 
American grown stock, size “B,” a little smaller 
than the imported, but sound, solid bulbs that 
will bloom beautifully and persist long. I am 
proud of this blend. 18 for 50c; 40 for $1.00. 
TULIP, PEERLESS BLEND—BABY BULBS. 
Smaller sizes of the above for naturalizing, or 
to grow on. Wonderful color range as de¬ 
scribed above. Just younger bulbs of exactly 
the same high quality. A few wall flower 
first spring, more the next, and they will grow 
in beauty from year to year. In my opinion, 
no better bulb bargain ever offered. 30 for 
25c; 65 for 50c; 150 for $1.00; 500 for $3.00; 
1000 for $5.50. Shipping charges additional.
