Michell’s High-Grade Bulbs for Florists 
Amaryllis (Ready in November or December) 
If wanted by Parcel Post, add 20c. per doz. for postage 
Giant American Hybrids. We believe this is the finest race of Amaryllis 
in cultivation. Flowers are of enormous size, fine form, and of a 
great diversity of colors. They make splendid pot-plants for store 
sales, and when in bloom sell on sight at a good price. We offer 
mixed colors only. Doz. $4.00; 100, $30.00. 
Anemone (Ready in October) 
Excellent for cut-flowers and sells readily with any florist who has a 
store trade. On arrival of bulbs, soak them in lukewarm water for from 
12 to 18 hours before planting. Use virgin soil that is not heavy and 
which has been lightly mulched with peat moss. Plant in deep bulb- 
pans or flats, allowing about 2 inches each way; water sparingly until well 
established and carry over in a deep coldframe; bring into a 45° green- 
house about the middle of January and let them develop slowly. 
Do not attempt to force or over-water. Grown in this way they 
should flower the latter part of March or early in April.

Eremurus - Foxtail Lily; Giant Asphodel 
A rare bulbous plant that is very hardy. The tall flower-stalks, 
rising from a tuft of long, narrow leaves, are crowned by a flower-spike 
2 to 3 feet long, closely set with star-like, bell-shaped flowers. On account 
of their height, we recommend these for the rear of the hardy border.
