Note: In ordering any bulbs of assorted colors, do not designate the color 
you want even tho several colors are named in the description. ‘‘Assorted’’ 
means “‘mixed up’’. We cannot tell the color you might name from the other 
colors. 
Amarcrinum Howardii. A cross between Crinum moorei and Amaryllis 
belladonna. A delicate pure sweet pink color. Increases wonderfully fast and 
blooms in all seasons even midwinter here. $1.00 ea. Extra large, $1.50 and 
$2.00. 
Amaryllis belladonna. Botanists have recently changed its name to Calli- 
core rosea. We must get accustomed to this new name. It has many common 
names — Surprise Lily, Naked Lady Lily, or better Lady Godiva Lily are de- 
scriptive of the fact that the flower stem shoots up, bursts into full bloom in 
only a few days—and is unclothed by any leaves. The soft pink flowers in large 
umbels are of exquisite beauty and Spicy intriguing fragrance. Valuable for 
cutting. 
Culture. It is best to transplant in®™ July but we have bulbs dug before 
blooming that can be held back until (possibly) Sept. 10. Order at once. Late 
orders will be filled with bulbs that have bloomed as they can be moved until 
foliage has begun to show. In the south plant in garden with top of bulbs a 
little below the surface. Amaryllis are very hardy for this class and will recover 
easily from 12° of frost. They may be grown as far north as Washington, D. C. 
or Vancouver, B. C. 
They are not very successful as pot. plants but will bloom the first year 
and one flower stalk is well worth the cost of the bulb. 
A. belladonna major. Earliest, pure pink. 25c. Larger, 35c. Jumbo size, 
50c. Doz. $2.00, $3.00 and $5.00. 
A. belladonna minor. White throat. Later flowering. 50c. 
Anigozanthos flavida. Kangaroo Paws. Dark green foliage resembling that 
of Iris stylosa. Evergreen. The many branched panicles carry small yellow in- 
conspicuous flowers. Plant is odd and decorative but more interesting to col- 
lectors. Formerly placed in Amaryllis Family but recent botanists consider this 
incorrect. $1.00 ea. 
Clivia. syn. Imantophyllum. Altho easy to grow and to flower by the ama- 
teur, they will always be classed with the aristocrats of flowering bulbs, be- 
cause the flowers easily place them there. Also they increase so slowly by 
division that the chief method must be thru the freely produced seeds. But a 
Clivia requires at least five years and usually seven, to flower from seed. This 
time involves expense. They can never become very cheap. 
Clivias have evergreen, strap like foliage somewhat resembling that of 
Hippeastrums. 
The flowers are produced in umbels of 10 to 25, in rich and exquisite tones 
of orange, in March and April. When not in flower the deep rich green foliage 
and later the red fruits are most ornamental.. 
Culture. Clivias are choice and rare pot plants in the north. They do so 
well in pots that they are usually grown that way even in the south. They re-
