Amaryllis blew 
Tennyson 
This plant is of low growth 
Vis' and produces its iiowers on 
|?[ strong, erect stems. The 
| blooms are of the purest white, 
and so large that they closely 
resemble a Pompon Chrysan- 
| themum, making them very 
desirable for cutting. The 
plant is perfectly hardy and will t hrive in almost any situation. Very de¬ 
sirable for the garden or cemetery, as it blooms nearly the whole season. 
Plants, each, 20 cents; three for 50 cents; seven for $1.00. 
This lovely Amaryllis is one 
of the finest varieties ever in¬ 
troduced. The flowers are of 
the largest size, bright orange 
scarlet, with a broad, silvery 
band in each petal. We have 
been very fortunate in obtain¬ 
ing a large supply of splendid 
bulbs of this variety, which en¬ 
ables us to offer them at very 
moderate prices. 
Extra strong bulbs, each, 75 cents. Strong bulbs, each, 50 cents. 
“A song for our banner 7 The watchword recall 
Which gave the Republic her station; 
1 United we stand , divided we fall,* 
It made and preserves us a nation /” 
—George P. Morris. 
Among the many plants of recent introduction which we had on trial the past 
season, none were more admired than this little beauty. It is of low growing 
habit, forming a very unique plant that is well covered with brilliant tube-shaped 
flowers.-The rare and beautiful combination of colors displayed in this flower 
are Red, White and Blue, which is at once suggestive of its semblance to our 
National Flag. It is well adapted for general uses, such as bedding out, pot 
culture or hanging baskets, and will become a great favorite.
