Amarcriimm Howardii. Interesting hybrid between Crinum moorei and A. 
belladonna. Very free flowering. $2 and $2.50. 
Anigozantlios flavida. Kangaroo Paws. Dark green foliage resembling that 
of Iris stylosa. Evergreen. The many branched panicles carry small yellow in¬ 
conspicuous flowers. Plant is odd and decorative but more interesting to col¬ 
lectors. Tender to frost but grows well in pots. Part shade. $2.00. 
Chlidanthus fragrans. The yellow Amaryllis. The umbels of pure deep 
yellow flowers with a very rich spicy fragrance are a delight in the garden. 
When well established they bloom very freely in spring. Best method in north 
is to plant in pots plunged in soil in summer and stored in winter or dig un¬ 
divided clumps with some earth. Large bulbs 15c. Per doz. $1.25. Per 100, $9. 
Medium size. 10c ea. 
Clivia. syn. Imantophyllum. Until recently Olivias have been rare and 
expensive. They can never be very cheap or common because they grow slowly 
from seeds and large plants increase rather slowly. Plants and flowers have 
rare beauty, and tho not gaudy the flowers easily rival orchids or lilies. 
The flowers are orange toned, ranging from light yellow orange to a deep 
red orange, in a many flowered umbel. In pots in the house they will flower 
often as early as February or March. Outside our plants flower from March to 
late April usually. 
Our method of growing Olivias in the ground enables us to get greater in¬ 
crease of plants and more rapid growth. This combined with our method of 
shipping the plants loose rooted, thus avoiding cost of postage on pot and soil, 
has enabled us to sell at more attractive prices. 
The plants are not difficult to establish when handled thus. We have re¬ 
ceived very many letters of appreciation and all customers report they go right 
ahead and bloom. 
We advise that you order at once but direct us to ship when ready. In this 
way we will select a plant with bud just showing. Thus you will have the 
pleasure of enjoying the flower soon after receiving the plant. 
This delivery of a plant in bud is a great advantage. So far as we know, no 
one else can do that at our low price. But this applies only to large plants at 
$1.50 each or more. Unless requested to hold until bud shows we will ship at 
once. But we cannot guarantee that moving at that time may not stop the for¬ 
mation of a bud. 
Clivia miniata. Hardiest and most valuable species. Flowers attractive 
yellow orange. No variations in color. Small plants at 50c. Blooming size,—but 
not sure bloomers, $1.00. Large plants, in bud if desired, $1.50 and $2. each. 
C. miniata hybrids. These hybrids do not have as broad foliage, with 
bluntly rounded tips as the Nobilis hybrids. The colors are lighter pastel tones 
and many prefer them to the darker colors. 
They are hardier and more easily grown. The flowers are more wide open 
and flat. Compared to the species C. miniata a few have flowers that are little 
if any larger but in a wide variety of color tones and markings from near white 
to near red, while miniatas are all one color. Most of them are decidedly larger 
or better in various ways. We sold these last year for $5.00 each. As we have 
recently acquired the stock of Clivia hybrids of another grower, we wish to 
make room in the Clivia house without enlarging it much and offer these at a 
very low special and temporary price of $3.00 each. $27.50 per doz. Largest 
plants, $3.75, or $35 per doz. Small plants, not blooming size, $1.00. Per doz. 
$9.00. 
C. nobilis hybrids. Flowers range from light to dark orange red. Higher in 
price because we have fewer. (Personally we consider the Zimmerman strain 
better.) $10. and $15. each. 
C. Zimmerman hybrids. These are claimed by the originator to be the best 
strain anywhere. It is certainly the best American strain, and better than any 
others that we have seen. The leaves are as broad as the Nobilis hybrids usually, 
but are more pointed and the flowers larger and more open. Blooming size, five 
year old plants (but not sure bloomers), $5. each. $45 per doz. We will not 
accept orders for this size in bud.
