Watsonias 
(See Above Photo ) 
Bugle Lilies —A South African bulbous 
plant similar to a gladiolus in foliage and 
bloom. Flowers produced in great abund¬ 
ance; as many as 50 have been counted on a 
single spike. Does not have to be replanted 
each year as do gladiolus. They increase in 
size and beauty each year. Valuable for 
planting in front of shrubbery to add color 
to the landscape. Orders for watsonias can 
only be filled in September while plants are 
dormant. Especially valuable as cut flowers 
as they bloom early in April. I offer 4 
varieties: Rose-pink shaded with salmon, 
light rose-pink, pure white. These are $1.50 
per dozen. (All large flowering varieties.)

variety in my collection; beautiful sparkling 
rose-lavender. 50c each.

rarely seen Fuchsia that can be grown

heit. Small flowers produced in 
masses. Sepals coral red, petals 
purple. 75c each. 
Fragrant Gladiolus—Tristis 
Nocturally fragrant, medium sized flowers. 
Height 2 feet. Exceptionally hardy. 
Flowers cream yellow in color. Blooms 
in this climate about 15th of March, fully 
two months before common variety, and 
one month earlier than the earliest Baby 
gladiolus. More fragrant than freesias. 
Blooming size bulbs 12 for $1.00, not less 
than 12 at this rate. 
HENDERSON'S NEW HYBRID 
BABY GLADIOLUS 
A superb new race of gladiolus pro¬ 
ducing flowers in a new range of color 
combinations never before seen in this 
flower. These colors include orchid and 
rose; crimson and carmine; rose-ash and 
yellow; and many other beautiful forms. 
No description is adequate for these 
gracefid gladiolus. More graceful and 
easily used for table decoration than the 
common gladiolus. $1.00 per dozen. 
Mixed colors. This new type of gladiolus 
will stand frosts as low as 10 degrees 
above zero with no ill effects on foliage. 
Due to this fact they will bloom in Alarch 
even after a cold California winter. One 
month to six weeks earlier than the earliest 
Baby Gladiolus. Some of the hybrids are 
quite fragrant. Highly recommended.
