AMARYLLIS HALLI. 
Hall's Hardy Amaryllis. 
In early spring it produces sword-like leaves which 
ripen in July, and anyone who is not advised of its habit 
would be apt to conclude the bulbs had perished; but, lol 
in a month or six weeks the flower stalks are thrown up 
two feet high and are crowned with clusters of exquisitely 
beautiful orchid-like flowers, 3 to 4 inches in diameter. 
The flowers are delicate lilac-pink, shaded with sky blue, 
and there are from 8 to 10 upon each stalk. 
It needs no special care or attention. Once properly 
planted, (merely place the bulbs about four inches below 
the surface), it will take care of itself. Strong bulbs, 
each, 25c; doz., $2.50.
