EASTER LILY CACTI 
(Echinopsis) 
All of them have beautiful 
blossoms like the illustration

freely during spring and 
summer. Their culture is very 
simple and they like consid¬ 
erable moisture in the sum¬ 
mer while they are growing.

plants that are 10 or more 
years old and that may have 
15 to 75 flowers in a season!

CRESTED HEDGE HOG CACTUS 
(Echinopsis multiplex cristata) 
Crested Cacti are the beauties and the curi¬ 
osities of the Cactus World. As you may see, 
they do not look at all like ordinary plants, but 
assume a curious ruffled growth, bending and 
curving into beautiful fluted piles. Large speci¬ 
mens are very valuable, increasing in beauty 
for many years. You will like them. SI.25 ea. 
PRICKLY PEARS 
The Opuntias are a huge 
group easily known by their 
flat "pads" or round joints. 
Many of them are very strik¬ 
ing, with handsome flowers. 
Sometimes they grow in im¬ 
penetrable thickets, some¬ 
times into great trees. In 
your garden they will grow 
almost too fast and soon 
form nice "cactusy" looking 
specimens. 
See page 10 for a fine col¬ 
lection of them.

monacantha variegata.) A 
beautiful, many colored

will grow in any outdoor

is one of the very prettiest,

ly the buds almost push one

snowy white hair. It is found in only 
a few places and is rapidly becoming

tered over rock strewn slopes, white 
patches like grazing sheep. Handsome 
crepe-silk blossoms 3" across. 35c and

ferently colored spines and flowers. No
