TRILLIUM GRANDIFLORUM. 
TRILLIUM grandiflorum. This is generally considered the finest species. It is really a charming 
plant, blooming in early spring, and bearing a large, pure white flower, which when fully ex¬ 
panded is not rarely 3 inches wide, turning to light rose with age. 8 cts. each, 80 cts. per doz. 
Price per 100 or 1,000 upon application, a. 
T. erythocarpum (Painted Trillium). Flowers white, with purple stripes; very fine. 
20 cts. each. a. 
T. recurvatum. A western species, with brown-purple flowers and green leaves blotched with 
white. 20 cts. each, 2 for 30 cts. a. 
T. ovatum. A white-flowered species from Oregon. 15 cts. each, $1.25 per doz. a. 
T. stylosum. I am very much pleased with this plant. Although not so large as 7 '. grcindi- 
florum, its flowers and foliage are more durable. At first the flowers are white or pale rose, but 
with age turn to a darker shade, and this change is not the change of decay. They retain their 
full freshness long after the change. The flowers last a long time, and then the three good-sized 
leaves last after those of other sorts are dried up and gone. All points considered, it is one of 
the best species. 10 cts. each, $1 per doz. b. 
UVULARIA grandiflora (Bellwort). 12 to 18 inches high, forking above numerous light green 
leaves and light, pendent flowers. Fine for shaded locations. 10 cts. each, 75 cts. per doz. b.
