CHINESE SACRED LILY 
A variety of Polyanthus Narcissus introduced by*the 
Chinese. The flowers are pure silvery white, with golden 
yellow cups, chaste and graceful in appearance and of 
exquisite fragrance. A dozen bulbs started at intervals 
in shallow bowls of water, three or four bulbs in each dish, 
with just enough small pebbles or stones to prevent them 
from toppling over, will give a succession of flowers 
throughout the winter. 
Extra large size bulbs, by mail postpaid, each 12 cents; 
per dozen, $1.35. 
ALLIUM NEAPOLITANUM 
This species is largely raised in Southern France for its 
handsome white flowers produced in clusters; and is 
extensively grown by florists. Six or eight bulbs may be 
planted in a five-inch pot; they will develop in a low or 
moderate temperature. 
Two for 5 cents; dozen 20 cents; $1.00 per 100, post¬ 
paid. 
GARDEN ANEMONE 
The Garden Anemones are very beautiful flowers. 
Some are double, some are single, the single varieties 
being the most brilliant. These Anemones have not been 
grown generally at the north because somewhat tender, 
and are not advised except for those gardens which have 
some shelter, either from buildings or evergreen trees or 
closely planted shrubs, where on a well-drained border 
the bulbs may be planted in autumn and given the protec¬ 
tion of a thick coating of stable litter or leaves or ever¬ 
green boughs. The flowers are so beautiful that they will 
give the highest satisfaction when they come into bloom 
in the spring. Plant them five inches apart and cover 
three inches deep. The bulbs can also be potted in the 
fall and kept cool and be brought into bloom in the win¬ 
dow or the greenhouse.

CALLA LILY 
Richardia Africana 
The well-known Egyptian Lily, or Lily of the Nile, 
with large white flowers and broad foliage. An excellent 
plant for aquariums. In the spring they may be planted 
in the garden, and left until September, when they may 
be taken up, potted, and removed to the house or con¬ 
servatory, and will bloom in winter and spring. 
Our Calla roots are grown for us in California, where 
the Calla is perfectly at home and grows magnificently. 
First Size, large flowering rhizomes, each 20 cents; per 
dozen, $2.00. 
Second Size, each 15 cents; dozen, $1.50. 
Third Size, each 10 cents ; dozen, $1.00. 
FREESIA 
This is a delightful winter-blooming plant for window 
and conservatory. The bulbs are small, and six or eight 
can be planted in a five-inch pot. The earlier the bulbs 
are potted, the better, setting them down so that the soil 
will cover the tips. They will start both root and top 
growth without ifluch delay, and can easily be had in 
bloom by Christmas. Be careful to keep them moist and 
in a moderate temperature. The flowers, which are white 
with a blotch of yellow at the throat, and about an inch in 
length, are produced in a raceme of five to eight, each 
standing erect. They are deliciously fragrant. The stems 
cut and placed in water keep well. After the plants have 
bloomed they can be given less and less water until the 
leaves have died, when the bulbs can be dried off and laid 
away until the following autumn. doz. 100
