COLCHICUM 
(Autumn-Flowering Crocus) 
These charming flowers resemble crocuses, but are larger and are 
displayed more above the ground, and, instead of blooming early in 
spring, bloom in September, when the flowers appear without any 
leaves, the leaves appearing the following spring. The bulbs are very 
apt to bloom in the packages while being delivered, but this will not. 
prevent them from blooming the following season. The colors com¬ 
prise many shades of white, purple, rose and striped. They are beau¬ 
tiful and interesting and should be planted where they can remain 
permanently.

OXALIS 
These are profuse bloomers, and very attractive in the house or 
conservatory during the winter. Plant three of four bulbs in a pot; 
the pot should be kept near the glass to prevent the foliage from 
growing too long. 
Bermuda Buttercup. Greatly improved selection from Oxalis Cornua; 
grows in the congenial soil and climate of Bermuda until the bulbs 
have attained great strength, producing plants and flowers larger 
and more luxuriant than the common variety. It is one of the 
finest of winter-flowering plants for pot culture, of strong, luxu¬ 
riant growth; one bulb is sufficient for a 6 -inch pot. The great 
profusion of bloom produced in uninterrupted abundance for 
weeks is astonishing. The flowers are of the purest bright butter¬ 
cup yellow.

Spanish Iris 
These exquisitely beautiful Irises are almost unknown in this 
country, yet they are perfectly hardy, of the easiest culture and 
cheaper than crocuses. In England they are grown by the millions 
for cut-flowers. They bloom early in June and grow 15 to IS inches 
high. They have a great combination and variety of color in the 
same flower. They are very diverse and of great richness, compris¬ 
ing all shades of blue, yellow and bronze, as well as pure white, and 
are highly useful for decoration and cutting. They should be planted 
about 5 inches apart. We advise all our customers to try a few hun¬ 
dred, and in large gardens they should be planted by the thousands. 
The stock we offer is exceptionally fine. These Irises can be bloomed 
in the greenhouse in the spring, but are not suitable for growing in 
the house.

LIATRIS PYCNOSTACHYA 
The popular name of this striking plant is Kansas Gay Feather 
Nothing can be planted that will attract more attention on account 
of a very unusual appearance, but it is very beautiful as well as 
odd. It blooms in midsummer and throws up long, narrow spikes 
of rich purple flowers which last a long time. A peculiarity of this 
plant is its great attraction for butterflies; when in bloom it is 
always surrounded with them. 15c. each, $1.50 per doz., $0 per 100.
