MIJHCARI (Grape Hyacinth) 
LEUCOJUM VERNUM 
GRAPE HYACINTH, Muscari. Charming 6 
inch spikes of tiny blue bells with grassy fol¬ 
iage. Plant 3 inches deep and 3 inches apart. 
Excellent set with Mariposa Tulips in the rock¬ 
ery. Heavenly Blue, 12 for 45c; 100 for $3.00. 
LEUCOJUM VERNUM (Spring Snowflake or 
St. Agnes Flower). A member of the Lily fam¬ 
ily, these bulbous plants produce their pendant 
white flowers a few weeks after the early 
Snowdrops. Of easy culture, the bulbs should 
be set 3 inches deep in well-drained, sunny 
border or rockery pocket. In mild sections 
they need no protection, however a slight win¬ 
ter covering in the north is advisable. Bulbs 
may be left undisturbed for years. 3 for 15c; 12 
for 50c. 
LEUCOCORYNE Ixioides Odorata (Glory of 
the Sun). Flowers delicate blue shading to white 
are produced in graceful umbels on wiry 1 1-2 
ft. stems. Their delightfully intangible helio¬ 
trope fragrance, and their long lasting quality 
make this a most desirable flower for use in 
the home or outside in the southern states. 
Prefers a light, rich soil and 50-60 degrees F. 
temp. Bulbs 10c each, 3 for 25c. 
BRODIAEA Laxa—Triplet Lily. Known also 
as TRITELEIA Laxa, this native California 
flower is good for rock garden or in the south 
for naturalizing. Although the grass-like fol¬ 
iage is commonplace, the great clusters of lav¬ 
ender blue flowers are really striking on their 
15-inch to 20-inch stems. A good keeper either 
on the plant or when cut. It requires a light 
sandy soil witli very good drainage and a sunny 
location. Plant 2 1-2 inches deep before the 
ground freezes, and mulch with well rotted ma¬ 
nure. Hardy in the south. 
3 for 20c; 12 for 60c; 100 for $4.49. 
ORNITHOGALUM Umbellatum, Star of Beth¬ 
lehem. Produces clusters of snowy white flow¬ 
ers contrasted by a green striping on the outer 
side of each petal. This small 6-10 inch plant 
is fine for naturalizing, since it propagates 
easily and reproduces freely. It flowers pro¬ 
fusely in early spring, then its grass-like foliage 
dies down in midsummer. Plant bulbs 2 inches 
deep. 3 for 15c, 12 for 50c, 100 for $3.75. 
ORNITHOGALUM Thyrsoides Aureum. No¬ 
ted for its long lasting qualities, the bright, 
golden yellow heads of the Wonder Flower 
endure for several weeks after cutting. It is 
well adapted for use as a pot plant, bearing 
large clusters of cup-shaped Howers on 12-inch 
terns. Requires a cool, well-lighted place. 
Julbs 15c; 3 for 40c.
