SACRED LILY OF INDIA 
(Ainorphophallus Rivieri) 
A great novelty that is curious, interesting and unique. 
Planted in the garden when the Dahlias are planted, it produces an 
attractive plant that suggests a small palm — a single stem that is 
mottled green and white with purple and reddish shadings. There are 
three palm-like branches bearing numerous, small, lacy leaves. After 
the top has been killed by frost, the bulbous root is dug and stored in a 
cool cellar. About Christmas time, it is brought into the light and heat, 
and in three or four weeks sends up its long stem bearing at the top a 
Calla-shaped flower 14 inches across with a spadix that may be 36 inches 
long. They start to bloom when 4 years old, and bloom annually thereafter. 
Bulbs should be covered 3 to 6 inches. The blooming bulb indoors requires 
no soil or water; but in the garden in summer should not be allowed 
to dry out. 
Very few bulbs available at 1 yr. 75c; 2 yr. bulbs, $1.50; 3 yr. bulb 
$2.00; 4 yr. bulb, $5.00 postpaid, in spring or fall. 
Blossoms 3 feet long on stems 7 feet tall.
