The 25 
Bulbs 
for 
Elegans. 
(Coral Drops.) 
It will bloom shortly after being 
planted in the open ground, and will 
keep on blooming until frost. We 
have frequently had seven succes¬ 
sive flower spikes from one bulb in 
a season. In point of beauty it is exqui¬ 
site. The flower stems are from one to two 
feet high, supporting a dozen or more 
bell-shaped flowers of a bright coral scar¬ 
let, with white cups and dark blue an= 
thers. The foliage is thin and rush-like, 
io to 12 inches long. Like the Milla, the 
blooms will last many days when cut. 
5c. each; 3 for 10c.; 10 for 20c.; $2.10

Milla 
) 
have 
the oddest and most, beautiful appearance 
imaginable. They appear like the most 
beautiful waxwork, only enlivened by a 
living sparkle. The center is lovely, the 
anthers are a delicate lemon yellow. The 
pistil is curiously carved, and usually cov¬ 
ered with honey dew. The fragrance is de= 
lightful. Place a stalk in water and the 
flowers will all open. We have seen eleven 
stalks shoot up successively from one bulb. 
The bulbs will flower profusely with great- 
certainty.

Giant Spring Ranunculus. 
These from spring planted bulbs give 
most astonishing results. Plant very early, 
in partial shade, and water freely, and in a 
few weeks you will have a show of large 
double flowers, which even roses . cannot 
surpass. We know of no other low-priced 
bulb that is so magnificent. Their long, 
wiry stems fit them admirably for cutting, 
and for late spring bedding they have few 
equals. They bear the most lovely flowers 
imaginable—pink, white, black, yellow, red, 
blush and variegated, each about two 
Inches in diameter, and as double and as 
perfectly imbricated as a dahlia or a rose. 
Cyclobothra 
Flava . 
(Golden Shell.) 
The cup is Golden yel¬ 
low, with fine black dots 
in the petals. The three 
colors contrast most 
beautifully together. A 
few sprays of each, when 
placed together, form a 
cluster heretofore unseen 
and unattainable in the 
way of flowering bulbs. 
A subtle fragrance per¬ 
vades the flower.
