MONTBRETIAS 
Delivery—March to A pril 

Attractive Summer and Autumn blooming bulbous plants 
which resemble miniature Gladiolus. They may be planted 
in the open garden as soon as the ground is workable in early 
Spring, in the same manner as Gladiolus. 
If planted in a well drained location, these bulbs 
often prove hardy in Massachusetts, but it is unwise 
to risk wintering them in the open unless protected 
by a mulch of some such material as salt marsh hay. 
To advance the blooming season, the bulbs may be 
potted and started indoors during February or 
March. Transfer to the garden in May. Water 
plentifully during growing season.

to a height of 2 or 3 feet. These buds soon open into 
clusters of from 8 to 12 large Lily-like flowers of a rosy 
lilac color. They are very handsome and always excite 
admiration. $1.00 each, $10.00 per doz.
