Amarylis, the plants not quite as tall and the foliage highly 
attractive the year round. Flowers fragrant in shade of scarlet 
and red as well as orange in great umbells during winter. The 
seed we offer is saved from new dwarf hybrids by a European 
specialist. 
CULTURE—Sow in flats, space seeds 5 inches apart, cover 
lightly, use soil composed of one-half leaf mould, one-half sod 
soil with some sharp sand. During winter keep in a tem- 
perature around 60, during summer keep the plants outdoors. 
Unlike Amarylis, Clivia requires liberal watering at all times, 
plenty of light and air. When the bulbs reach the size of a 
hen’s egg pot them up using 5-6 inch pots. The seed lays 
6 to 8 weeks before it germinates, it takes 2-3 years before 
the plants reach blooming size. Tender bulbous plant. Height 
15 inches. PRICE:
