dark lines on stems; snow white with green veins.

green border. Highly recommended. Distinguished 
from Triomphe de I’Exposition by black stem and height¬ 
ened color of leaf. 
“Hortulania” fine window-pane type, transparent 
rose or light red. Very showy and effective but does 
not make large bulbs.

Very good. 
“Edith Mead”, slender variety with white centered

“Arrow and Lance” varieties in mixture: These are 
varieties from the collection of the late T. L. Mead of 
Oviedo, Fla., produced by the use of Caladium albanense 
and other rare species in hybridizing. They are very 
handsome and great novelties in any caladium collection. 
They are dwarfer types and mostly of marbled gray-green 
coloring, with blend of chocolate and cream. We es¬ 
pecially suggest a trial of these fine types for your inter¬ 
est and pleasure in growing fine new things.

CALLA LILY RHIZOMES 
We are large cut-flower growers of Godfrey semi¬ 
dwarf white callas, and the large standard white calla, 
Richardia aethiopica. Both of these varieties are easy 
to handle in pots and will bloom in the home or green¬ 
house under ordinary culture during the winter. In 
warm climates they can be planted in the open on rich 
land or in prepared beds. 
Our bulbs are grown on rich hammock soil and heavily 
fertilized to produce strong tubers and abundant blooms 
for market purposes. Our calla flowers have taken 
numerous blue ribbons at flower shows in Florida, and 
at the Central Florida exposition for a number of years. 
We know the bulbs are good because we grow them our¬ 
selves, dig them and cure them ourselves and personally 
select every rhizome for sale and shipment. 
The bulbs should be grown in the north in pots of 
rich but friable soil, which will drain well. It is difficult 
to make it too rich so long as water will pass through it 
freely. A one-inch bulb to a six inch pot or an inch and 
a half bulb to an eight inch pot is sufficient. The pots 
should be watered carefully until the rhizomes sprout, 
and watering must be frequent and plentiful after the 
blooms appear. In nature the calla is an aquatic plant. 
We dig and dry them off in May.
