GLORIOSA SUPERBA 
This handsome African tuberous rooted plant known as the 
Climbing Lily has been used formerly as a greenhouse climber, 
but after repeated tests, we find that it may be enjoyed by the ama¬ 
teur as a most attractive climber. They may be grown on a trellis, 
as they find support through numerous tendrils. Grows 6 to 8 ft. 
in height and produces numerous flower stems 12 in. in length, 
large reflexed Uly-like flowers, opening yellow but changing to 
orange-red and deep scarlet. The tubers should be planted in a 
warm, sunny situation or to insure early growth they may be 
started inside. In Fall the tubers should be lifted and placed in 
dry sand in a warm cellar for the Winter. Each 75c., 3 for $2.00, 
$7.50 per doz.
