AMARYLLIS, HIPPEASTRUM HYBRIDS 
There is nothing that will give the amateur greater pleasure for growing 
in the house as well as in the garden. These giant-flowering Amaryllis 
produce a magnificent blossom with the least possible care and trouble. 
Planted in a pot in the fall they will bloom about six or eight weeks 
after planting. Bulbs may be kept dormant and planted a week or ten 
days apart so that you will have succession of bloom throughout the 
entire winter. In the garden they may be planted during March, April 
and May, depending upon locality, and they will bloom during June and 
July without any trouble whatsoever. The bulbs throw a vigorous stem 
with 4 to 6 gigantic blooms, ranging in color from pure white grounds 
with varied markings of rose, red and crimson to the richest self colors 
as scarlet, crimson and bright red. We can supply from November until 
April, bulbs guaranteed to bloom.

ANEMONE 
These popular flowers of French origin are exceedingly brilliant when in 
flower and excellent for cutting. They like to be planted about 6 inches 
deep in a cool, moist, but well-drained soil. Will establish without any

planting, for the southern section of the country, fall planting is best. Cover 
in winter with strawy manure.
