GERMAIN'S NEW 
EPIDENDRUM O'BRIENIANUM 
Nearly every one has wished he might grow orchids. Here is one that will make 
your wish come true for it is of the easiest of culture, and a well-established plant 
will flower almost continuously. Given ordinary garden soil in a sunny, frostless 
situation this vivid red orchid will provide an abundance of flowers. 
Suitable for pot culture also. The plant is almost a vine in type and the flowers in 
clusters on their long stems lend themselves well to floral arrangement. 
Four-inch pots, $1.00; postpaid, $1.15. 
STRELITZIA REGINAE 
Rivaling the birds of the tropics with its exotic splendor these Birds of Paradise 
are found much in favor in the plant world. The flower as though poised for flight 
with its combination of red, yellow, blue and orange is quite different from the 
average garden subject. Easily grown out of doors wherever oranges thrive or 
suitable as a tub plant in the colder sections. Should be planted in a sunny situa¬ 
tion in a rather rich soil and liberally watered especially during its flowering sea¬ 
son. The clumps should not be disturbed if one is to expect the greatest quantity 
of flowers. 
Four-inch pots, $1.00; postpaid, $1.15. 
Six-inch pots, $1.50; postpaid, $1.75. 
SCHIZOSTYLIS 
MRS. HEGARTY 
Certainly one of the most pleasing pink 
flowering bulbous plants ever introduced. 
Suitable to outdoor culture in the warmer 
sections of California. Preferring a shad¬ 
ed, well drained situation and kept rea¬ 
sonably moist they put forth their flow¬ 
ers on one foot to eighteen-inch stems. 
They make an excellent cut flower. 
Should be grown in a shaded situation 
and they will multiply quite rapidly.
