shape, are of an orange red shading to a deeper red toward the tips of the 
petals and boldly spotted black. Not quite as tall as some of the other 
Bellingham hybrids but an outstanding and vigorous plant carrying from 12 
to 20 blooms on stems 4 to 5 feet tall. July flowering. Plant 5 to 6 inches 
deep in partial shade and in a porous soil abundant in humus. Large 
selected bulbs, $1.50 each, $15.00 dozen. October-November delivery.
