Montbretias are among the finest summer flowering bulbs and 
will be largely planted when better known, flowering as they 
do nearly all summer; when planted in masses the effect is 
grand; they are invaluable for cut flowers and decorative pur¬ 
poses in the way of a miniature gladiolus. In this latitude 
they are not hardy and require two or three inches of leaves 
for protection, which is much better than to lift them annually 
and store them for the winter, as this makes their flowering 
, season much shorter. They should be lifted and replanted 
every two or three years, however, as they increase so rapidly 
that they soon become too crowded. 
We have a large stock of ^Montbretias, and therefore offer 
them at a very low rate.
