LEWISIA REDIVIVA — Great blossoms in suggestion of 
Waterlilies, pink Waterlilies, from softest blush to a shade 
so rich and deep that it approaches rose. It grows to only 
four inches, but the flowers are, for this, of extraordinary 
size, many open at once in crowded over-lappings. Of full- 
est winter-hardiness if the tubers are kept from frost- 
heaving damage during any winter thaws. Lewisia rediviva 
blooms just as Lewisia brachycalyx ends, and we consider it 
as beyond doubt the most beautiful flower of its season. Plant 
much of it. Incidentally, tubers will be limp and flabby 
when you get them, but that’s their nature, just as they 
should be at planting time. 3 for 40c; 6 for 75c; 9 for 
$1.00; 25 for $2.50. (Illustrated page 12.) 
LEWISIA BRACHYCALYX—A truly charming flower of 
early spring. The many big and feathery blossoms are 
spread close to the ground, their snowy whitness that yet 
carries a hint of sunset iridescence, facing skyward. A fully 
hardy tuber that needs no winter care, blooming long each 
spring, and enduring for years. It is an exquisite thing, 
worthy of your choicest place, yet of easy and sure growing. 
Each 25c; 3 for 60c; 10 for $1.75; 25 for $4.00. 
ERYTHRONIUM BLEND — Dainty lily-blossoms for the 
shaded corner, spring-tide pleasure for years to come, if you 
plant them now. Cream, lemon-gold, lavender, purple, rosy 
pink, all should be there. Note size of bulbs will vary, for 
this is a mixture of species, and bulbs of some kinds are 
naturally larger than are those of others. 3 bulbs for 25c; 
7 for 50c; 16 for $1.00; 50 for $2.75. (Illustrated page 7.) 
IXIOLIRION—Lily of the Altai. Star-spread trumpets in 
a vivid, breath-stealing indigo, are carried in open clusters. 
Long bloom in May and June. 20 inches. It seems to 
winter safely anywhere that Tulips will, though we sug- 
gest a bit of mulching with straw or leaves. It’s garden 
treasure. 2 for 25c; 9 for $1.00; 25 for $2.40. 
QUEEN ANNE JONQUIL—Fully double, richly fragrant 
rosette- flowers in richest of yellows. This is the true species 
of Rush-leafed Narcissus, the real and original double-flow- 
ered Jonquil. Of full hardiness, clumps increasing for 
years. 3 for 35c; 10 for 90c; 25 for $2.00. 
HYACINTHUS AZUREUS — A miniature of superlatives, 
earliest, most charming and smallest of the true Hyacinths. 
Muscari are larger, but none of them can show such a 
spread of vivid, heart-stealing azure as may this Liliputian 
delight. Tiny bulbs, but full flowering size. 10 for 55c; 20 
for $1.00. (Illustrated page 12.) 
THE PLUME HYACINTH—Now this is larger, and individ- 
ually more showy, yet it is no Hyacinth at all, rather an 
aberrant and giant form of Muscari comosum. Great ostrich 
plumes of shredded lavender blossoming, petalage crisped and 
curled, always a center of attention at Old Orchard when 
it is in flower. Long-lived. 3 for 25c; 10 for 70c. (Illus- 
trated page 14.) 
RANUNCULUS SPLENDID MIXED—Magnificent double 
and semi-double flowers on 15-inch stems, straw to gold, 
orange, scarlet and crimson, with pink tones and others 
ringed or petal-tipped contrastingly. Shade-tolerant. Rec- 
ommended for pot culture, but will often winter outside also 
if mulched as cold weather sets in. 6 for 25c; 25 for 85c.
