sizes. White, Pink, and Yellow.

borders. When properly grown it stands 6 to 8 feet high and 
bears immense light green leaves 3 to 4 feet long by 2 feet wide. 
Very tropical looking. Large clumps, 35c each. 
GLOXINIAS 
These bulbs produce very lovely trumpet-shaped flowers. 
Especially fine for the gardener who wants blooming plants 
during the summer. Gloxinias require more care than the 
average bulbous flower but are quite worth the effort. They 
come in a variety of colors from almost pure white to the 
darkest reds and purples as well as in bi-colors with dark 
trumpets and lighter fringes. Our bulbs are grown in Cali¬ 
fornia and do exceptionally well in this area. 25c each, $2.50 
per doz. 
ANEMONES (Windflower) 
These popular flowers are of French origin and are useful as 
decorative plants for house or garden and for cutting. If 
planted outdoors in the fall they must be well protected. They 
may also be planted in the spring in well-drained soil, and will 
flower during the summer. $1.50 per 100 bulbs. 
LILIES 
25c each, $2.50 per doz. 
L. Auratum. One of the most beautiful lilies in existence. The 
flowers are of a golden yellow, spotted with red. The flower 
stems grow from 2 to 3 feet high. Most desirable and showy. 
L. Formosanum. Long, graceful, trumpet flowers. The slender 
tube usually streaked on the outside with chocolate or brown, 
sometimes pure white, and the widely flaring face is always 
pure white and waxy. One of the best trumpet lilies and one of 
the last to flower. Exhales a sweet perfume suggestive of 
oriental incense. 
L. Henryi. The blossoms of this lily are a soft golden yellow 
with a tinge of light green through the center. Hardy and 
dependable. Excellent for bouquets, opening readily in water. 
L. Regale. Large white bell-shaped flowers with deep golden 
throat and pink midribs. Delightfully perfumed, but not so 
oppressive as some of the older lilies. A very beautiful flower. 
L. Speciosum Rubrum. One of the latest lilies to bloom and one 
of the sweetest. Flowers have a white background with numer¬ 
ous pink dots and shading of pink to carmine. The partial 
shade enhances the tone of the flowers.

ite. Rich salmon-orange flowers, spotted purple. The sturdy 
stalks carry as many as thirty flowers.
