This is entirely new, offered last year for the first time. 
These varieties of Oxalis are all for winter blooming. 
They make the most beautiful hanging pots and baskets, 
producing a mass of flowers all winter, which, in brilliant 
and beautiful colors, are truly charming. Winter-blooming 
Oxalis are always sure to please. Plant five or six bulbs in, 
a 6 inch pot. They commence growth immediately after 
planting and need not be set away to form roots like most 
other bulbs. They bloom during the entire winter, a, thing 
we can expect of very few plants or bulbs, and are lor that 
reason doubly worthy of a place in every collection of win¬ 
ter blooming bulbs. Our bulbs are particularly linn, and tile 
Grand Duchess. Bermuda Buttercup, and Versicolor, will be 
found to be exceedingly showy and free blooming.

factory winter bloomer.
