Eucharis grandiflora. A rare plant with a rare beauty and fragrance of 
flower. Broad attractive leaves, evergreen and waxy white flowers with a cup 
or corona after the fashion of a Daffodil or Hymenocallis. They are said to 
flower 3 or 4 times a year if rested but here it is difficult to get the flowers. 
They must have high humidity, constantly wet soil in the pots, good drain¬ 
age, high temperature and shade. The flowers are worth working hard for. A 
night temperature of 40° or 50° will kill the leaves but not bulbs. Keep then! 
warm. 
We offer thrifty growing bulbs at $1.50 each. This is much better than 
dry bulbs at a lower price. 
Hippeastruins. Popularly known as “Amaryllis.’’ The improved hybrids 
are among the most gorgeous of bulbs for winter blooming in pots as well as 
for the outside garden. The colors run from pure white to various tones in 
pink and red variously marked. You see rose, carmine, garnet, ruby, scarlet
