WYNDHAM HAYWARD, 
WINTER PARK, FLORIDA, U. S. A. 
A CHOICE SELECTION of rare plants, bulbs and tubers, gathered 
from all parts of the world and carefully grown under the best cultural conditions to give satisfaction 
in the greenhouse, conservatory or window garden in the north, and in the outdoor garden in warm 
climates. Most of these items are from the tropical and sub-tropical regions, but many are reasonably 
hardy, and this is noted below. 
All these plants can be grown in the northern states by the enthusiastic amateur* who is willing 
to give a little time and attention to the study of their simple requirements. They are new and 
different, but entirely worth while in every case. We guarantee satisfaction. Prices are net cash, with 
postage or express extra. Please include 10% of your remittance for this carriage charge in sending 
orders under $5.00; the percentage on larger orders depending on the nature of the plants or bulbs 
to be shipped. Minimum order $1.00. 
Every plant and bulb we sell is an interesting and valuable novelty or standard plant item. 
Our list is rather extensive in the class of material that we grow and we hope it will appeal to many 
different classes of garden lovers. Our quality is the best and our prices are as low as we can make 
them. Some of the items are in small supply at this time. We respectfully call your attention to our 
offerings of Hybrid Amaryllis, allied Amaryllids, Fancy Leaved Caladiums, Godfrey White Callas, 
Gerbera Daisies, Zephyranthes, Daylilies and Crinums. 
HYBRID AMARYLLIS 
These popular spring-flowering bulbs are almost 
too well known to need describing. Annually 
they are becoming the favorite flower and pot 
plant of thousands. They produce magnificient 
blooms up to 10 inches across, on tall scapes rising 
from a graceful head of green strap leaves. 
Wonderful as pot plants, they are fine in rich 
garden scil in the lower south and in the tropics 
generally. In the north they are best handled 
in pots, and should be potted up in the fall and 
winter, the earlier the better. September and 
October is not too early for good results. 
The bulb can be planted with one half buried 
in the so-il. They will begin to grow and pro¬ 
duce the blooms in early spring. Strong healthy 
bulbs will produce sometimes two spikes of 
four blooms each. They require a moderately 
warm temperature in the greenhouse and should 
bo protected from freezing. They are grown out¬ 
doors in South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Texas, 
Alabama and California where the winters are not 
severe. For tropical gardens they are supreme 
for a mass or border effect, especially against 
shrubbery. Singly they are fine specimen pot 
plants for effects. A bc<wl of the cut flower spikes 
is a gorgeous sight. 
Our strain of hybrid Amaryllis has been grown 
for large and attractively colored and shaped flow¬ 
ers with vigorous stems and thrifty leaf growth. 
They are of stronger constitution than greenhouse 
grown bulbs. The bulbs should be grown on after 
blooming until late summer, when they may be 
dried off and stored away in a dry place safe from 
freezing until spring. In the spring they should 
be brought up to the light and watered, after re¬ 
potting (if necessary) and blooming will follow. 
The bulbs may also be handled as evergreen plants, 
which is the course followed in outdoor culture. 
We offer three grades of the bulbs: first, exhi¬ 
bition quality stock, prices on request; second, se¬ 
lected quality bulbs, chosen from thousands in 
bloom, for superior types and colors, $1.00 each ; 
third, mixed bulbs, for mass plantings and for or¬ 
dinary pot plants, satisfactory to all but fanciers, 
25c each, $20.00 per 100. These are blooming size 
bulbs, 2 V 2 in. in diameter and up. 
Our commercial collection of Amaryllis is the 
equal in quality if not in size of any similar breed¬ 
ing stock in the country, we believe, and is the re¬ 
sult cf hybridizing and selection over more than 
six years, during which time we have imported 
bulbs from abroad and grown seedlings of the best 
strains in England, Holland, Germany, France and 
all parts of the United States, besides viewing 
several millions of bulbs in bloom in the Southeast. 
In a few years we will have a line of vegetatively 
propagated hybrid named Amaryllis varieties, in 
commercial quantities. Prices of seed and also 
full cultural directions supplied on request. We 
suggest membership in the American Amaryllis 
Society (dues $2.00 annually) which publishes a 
Year Book containing much valuable information 
for lovers of hybrid Amaryllis and allied bulbs. 
FANCY LEAVED CALADIUMS 
These are showy summer foliage plants of the 
highest quality and are popular greenhouse and 
fancier’s items. There are many hundreds of varie¬ 
ties, of which we grow only the most colorful and 
vigorous. We plant thousands of the bulbs an¬ 
nually for wholesale florist markets, and specialize 
in the best and showiest types. 
If you already knew fancy leaved caladiums, try 
our better bulbs. If you have not yet tried to grow 
them, order a sample collection of fine varieties in 
mixture and become acquainted with them. The 
bulbs are finding an increased popular interest 
with every year, after a long period of declining
