White Callas are generally kept too moist. They are repro¬ 
duced from a corm or root and not a bulb, and are susceptible to 
storage rots and soil-fungus disease. As the corm is subject to 
many bacterial and fungus rots, present in a great many soils, 
our growers recommend soaking the corms in a solution of one 
part commercial formaldehyde to 50 parts of lukewarm water 
for a period of one hour; the corm should be thoroughly dried 
after treatment before planting. The corm should not be stored 
for a great length of time, but should be planted as soon as 
possible after delivery.

Eremurus * Foxtail Lily/ Giant Asphodel 
A rare bulbous plant that is very hardy. The tall flower-stalks, 
rising from a tuft of long, narrow leaves, are crowned by a flower-spike 
2 to 3 feet long, closely set with star-like, bell-shaped flowers. On account 
of their height, we recommend these for the rear of the hardy border.
