CALLA - Zantedeschia 
Plant Callas indoors in the late fall of the year. In April or May dormant bulbs may be 
planted near the pool in a sunny spot where they will flower beautifully in August or Sep- 
tember. 
Elliottiana (Yellow Calla) Each 50c, Three $1.35, Doz. $5.00, 100 $35.00 
One that should be planted extensively. The deep golden yellow flowers are truly mag- 
nificent and produced in abundance. The green foliage is spotted white, which adds to its 
beauty; lovely house plant as well as gorden subject. (Color illustration, page 22.) 
Godfrey (White Calla) Each 40c, Three $1.10, Doz. $4.00, 100 $25.00 
Most ornamental foliage if grown near pool where it will get plenty of water; an excellent, 
easily grown house plant. 
Melanoleuca Each 85c, Three $2.50, Doz. $8.50, 100 $60.00 
Rare ‘‘Black throated’ Calla. The flower spathe is large, yellow and widely flaring. Margin 
and tip recurve revealing a sharply contrasting purplish black throat blotch. The hand- 
some yellow flowers are larger than those of the Calla Elliottiana. The plant is also taller 
and the spotted foliage even more decorative. Does particularly well outside, making a 
fine show in the garden. 
Rehmanni Each 55c, Three $1.50, Doz. $5.50, 100 $37.50 
The pink or rose Calla. A rather uncommon species native of Natal. The flowers are 
small but pink and therefore most unusual. An uncommon plant for the greenhouse or 
indoor culture. 
CAMASSIA | (hardy) 
There are few bulbous plants that meet climatic or soil conditions better or give a more 
attractive bloom. They are hardy without protection, and thrive either under ordinary garden 
conditions or when naturalized in open, moist woods or in not too dense a grassy growth. 
The flower stems are 2 to 4 feet high with as many as a hundred star-shaped flowers meas- 
uring 11/2 inches across and flowering in long succession. 
Cusicki Six $2.20, Doz. $4.00, 100 $25.00 
This is the giant of the race, about twice as tall and large as the popular Esculenta. Like 
the others it is excellent for cutting, woodland or garden planting, and survives and in- 
creases rapidly in the swampiest of places, as well as in the hardest, driest clay. 
Esculenta Six 70c, Doz. $1.20, 100 $8.00 
Very showy in mass planting. Forms flower spikes 2 feet high, bearing a cluster of star- 
shaped flowers of a very fine, rich purple. Fine for wet and swampy places where other 
bulbs do not grow. 
Leichtlini Six 90c, Doz. $1.60, 100 $10.50 
Same as preceding but stronger grower, flowers are larger and come in various hues of 
blue and creamy white. Again does well where other bulbs fail. (Color illustration, 
page 22.) 
IXIOLIRION 
Pallasi (Tataricum) 
Six $1.10, Doz. $1.85, 
100 $12.00 
A little known but 
choice hardy bulb e 
which in early June f 

produces several deep 
blue tubular flowers 
on slender stems. One 
of the last of the 
small “spring’’ bulbs 
to flower. Supply very 
limited. (See illustra- 
tion.) 


Lycoris 
Radiata 

LYCORIS RADIATA 
Six $1.10, Doz. $1.85, 100 $12.00 
From 10 to 20 flowers are borne 
on slender scapes 1 to || feet 
high in early autumn. They are 
bright crimson in color, about 
1 inches across; the sickle- 
shaped segments being scarcely 
crisped; filaments are bright red. 
The leaves appear after the 
flowers. They are easily grown 
indoors, in the North, but in the 
South may be grown outdoors in 
ordinary good gotcer soil. bs :
