proportion. Large sizes are better for forcing indoors. We offer No. 4 bulbs in 
Ranunculus only. They do very well if planted in flats to start and then trans- 
planted. Under ideal conditions results with them may equal those with No. 3’s. 
But they are more exacting and must be grown just right.

indoors use No. 2.

THE PINEAPPLE FAMILY, BROMELIACEAE 
: The Bromeliaceae, Bromeliads or The Pineapple Family are not bulbs but 
Fj 2ey do interest us. They have a rich tropical beauty both in foliage and flower. 
> hey are quite tender but are very easy in pots in the north. Here they require 
jaade but in the house they should have some sun. Give little water in winter 
jut much in summer. 
y} Billbergias are the most exciting of the family. Since they are epiphytes 
they prefer to be rooted in peat, sphagnum or leaf mould but do perfectly in a 
loose sandy soil containing much leaf mould. The most perfect setting is in the 
cup formed by the axil of a dead leaf of the ornamental Date Palm. Fill this 
space with the mould abundantly furnished by the tree. Sprinkle often. Plants 
offered are single offsets. 
Billbergia nutans. Green foliage with exquisite flower spikes in the spring, 
showing pink, green and blue. 50c. 
B. rubro-cyanea. The stiff leaves are larger and more erect, richly colored 
gray green, dark green and with white spots. There is a vivid red flower scape 
in the spring if well established. $1.00. 
B. distachia hybrid. Foliage like above but even more colorful, reddish, 
spotted green and a brilliant flower. $1.50.
