TIGRIDIA (Mexican Shellflower) 
This grows well in the open ground in sum- 
mer as far north as New England and gives 
a continuous display of gorgeous color from 
midsummer to frost. A writer in the Ladies 
Home Journal has this to say about it: 
“This brilliant silken triangle unfolds from its 
long slender bud and bursts into sharply contrasting 
tints of fire, leaping from bright yellow to molten 
orange and vivid scarlets, and is eagerly sought as 
a rare but sturdy garden novelty.” 
Cuttrure.—Give the bulbs the same treat- 
ment as gladiolus; that is, plant them 4 inches 
deep and at Jeast 6 inches apart, any time after 
May 15. The plant thrives in a sunny situa- 
tion but needs an abundance of water. 
Our improved strain is a mixture including 
a wide range of colors—white with spotted 
cup, white with rose sheen, rose, yellow with 
suffusion of red, yellow with spotted cup, and 
brilliant scarlet. $1 for 10,100 bulbs $7.50.
