Dieramas and Tigridias are both water lovers, liv¬ 
ing in the spray and banks of rivers. 
Iris aurea will do best out of doors in a frost free 
location. 
Leucocoryne should never be planted in flats, but 
in deep pots, in full sun, and given water from time 
of planting (October) 4 to 6 inches deep, in a soil 
mixture of medium loam and sand with about a 
third leaf mould (not oak). They must be grown 
DAMP, COOL (45 to 50 degrees) and SUNNY. 
All bulbs should be unpacked on arrival and 
properly stored until planting. 
PERSIMMONS 
We have been deeply gratifled at the reception 
accorded to our superb Tanenashi Persimmons 
through the holiday season from the week before 
Thanksgiving through the New Year. Their vivid 
orange color and beautiful shape add greatly to holi¬ 
day decorations, and as food their flavor is unsur¬ 
passed. So far as we know, we are alone in offering 
this Tanenashi commercially. Individual fruits weigh 
from one-half to one pound and over. 
WE SHIP 6 LBS. ANYWHERE IN THE 
UNITED STATES, PREPAID FOR $1.00
