White Calla 
(Aethiopica) Ready in September 
Callas being natives of swampy regions grow to best advan¬ 
tage where there is an abundance of moisture, and are therefore very 
difficult to handle in the curing. Some growers practice premature 
cutting off the tops, expose bulbs to the sun, in order to make 
early shipment. 
Our stock is thoroughly cured in the ground and dried thor¬ 
oughly before they are packed. This means later delivery but 
better results can be obtained from such bulbs. 
We caution forcers of Callas to water this stock sparingly after 
planting because Calla bulbs store up considerable moisture.
