THE CALLA LILY 
The Calla Lilies make excellent pot plants. The White 
Calla and the Black Calla (Arum) are the first to bloom, 
the Pink and the Golden needing slower forcing, and not 
starting their fiowering until late winter. Pot all up on 
receipt. All save the Pink Calla need an excess of water 
as compared with other pot plants. The Black Calla 
(Arum) is for forcing only, and not usually available after 
Dec. 1st. The other three are ordinarily in stock all winter. 
THE WHITE CALLA (Calla aethiopica)—Pure white flow¬ 
ers, waxy, glistening. Fragrant. Each 35c ; 3 for 90c. 
THE PINK CALLA—It is Zantedeschia Rehmanni, a true 
Calla, but rather dwarfer and more compact than the old- 
fashion white. The flowers, too, are a trifle smaller, but 
there are more of them. The coloring is most alluring; 
from white with but faintest of blush suffusions, through 
pink tintings, to pure deep rose. A good pot plant. Still 
rare. 65c each; 2 for $1.15. 
THE BLACK CALLA—Flower-spathes of richest velvety 
black-maroon. Striking and unusual. It is technically an 
Arum, but very close to Calla, and requiring like handling. 
Some times called Painted Calla. Each 40c; 2 for 75c. 
GOLDEN CALLA—Flower-spathes of brilliant shining yel¬ 
low, thick and wax-like. May be forced slowly for March 
bloom. Don’t try to rush it. Each 25c ; 3 for 70c. 
CALLA COLLECTION—One each of the four for $1.50. 
FOUR CARDEN EXCELLENCIES 
All are winter-hardy, all are perennial, all are needed 
in your garden. We think you will like every one of them. 
All are well-grown, full blooming size. They will move 
well any time until freeze-up comes.

the North. The flowers are soft pure pink, like double

undulate mounds of beauty. Supplied as sections of tuber¬ 
ous root, without leaves. Each 25c; 3 for 70c.
