BULBS FROM THE ENDS OF THE EARTH 
MILLA. Lily family. 
Milla biflora. Ht. 12-18". $15 per 100. $2.75 per 12 
New introduction from Mexico, where the country people call it 
Estrellitas or Little Stars. Showy white flowers of a wax-like tex¬ 
ture open out to 6 pointed stars with a stripe of soft apple-green 
on the outside of each petal. Stems wiry, bearing 2-7 flowers 
each. Pleasantly fragrant, and splendid for cutting, as the hex¬ 
agonal form of buds and flowers and the outside striping are 
attractively modernistic and unusual. Summer blooming. 
MORAEA. Iris family. 
Africa and Australia. Scarce and desirable plants, in form closely 
resembling Irises. In most species the flowers last only a day, but 
they are produced in such close succession that the plant is 
seldom without bloom during its flowering season. Splendid for 
cutting. Reasonably hardy in California. They want a dry 
summer baking. 
Moraea glaucopis. (Syn. Iris pavonia.) Ht. 10-15". $1.50 per 12 
The Peacock Iris. Delicious little species, very free-blooming and 
admirable for pots, borders, or rockeries. Three white petals, each 
marked with a vivid blue, almost turguoise, peacock's eye. 
Exciting. 
Moraea isopetala. Ht. 6-8". $1.50 per 12 
New. Slim and branching plant but of low stature. Flowers similar 
to those of M. polystachya but of a richer, deeper lavender. Espe¬ 
cially recommended for rock gardens.
