ance of 100 per cent blooms. Wedgewood is 
best described as a rich deep blue with a yellow

HELLEBORUS NIGER 
(The Christmas Rose) 
This interesting hardy plant can be grown 
in any sheltered position. Frost and 
snow apparently have little effect on 
its blooming, as whenever a thaw hap¬ 
pens in the early winter, their flowers 
appear untouched by ice and snow. 
The color is white, suffused with pink, and 
if sheltered in a glass cold frame they will 
turn almost pure white, on stems from 6 to 12 
inches in length, flowers from 2 to 3 inches 
across. Extra strong clumps, $1.00 each; 
$10.00 per doz. Delivered free in September 
and October. 
SPANISH IRIS 
Graceful, slender stems, with loose but 
beautiful flowers, the charming colors produc¬ 
ing a combination not surpassed by an orchid. 
The finest effects are produced when planted 
in clumps in the perennial border; flowering 
period May and early June. They are also 
excellent for growing in pots indoors or for 
forcing. 
We have secured a large quantity of north¬ 
ern grown bulbs, which, although smaller 
than the California bulbs, are all hard, firm 
bulbs that will give more and larger flowers. 
British Queen. Large pure white. 
Cajanus. Canary-yellow with orange-yellow 
blotch. 
King of the Blues. A fine, deep purplish blue. 
Longfellow. Light blue with lighter falls. 
Prince Henry. Large purplish bronze; one of

Price of any of the above varieties: 4 bulbs 
for 50c; doz., $1.00; 100, $6.00. Not less than 
four bulbs of one variety sold.
