Hymenocallis, Spider Lilies 
Many botanists have included Ismene here but the best authorities place it in a 
separate genus and we are so listing them here. These true Spider Lilies have huge 
white flowers. Their long narrow petals and long stamens give rise to the popular 
name. Culture. They are hardy only in the south, but in the north they are one of 
the easiest grown and most desirable of pot plants. A fine companion to Amaryllis and 
culture about the same except that if kept over winter in a warm room and watered 
the plant is evergreen and will flower earlier. 
Hymenocallis sp. Tropical Spider Lily. The huge pure white, spidery flowers are 
exquisitely fragrant. 50c. 
Ismene. Very popular garden bulbs in both north and south. In the north they 
must be dug and stored like Gladiolus over winter. Some fail to get flowers and even 
lose bulbs because they store in a cold place. The best storage temperature is 70°. 
Plant 4” to 6” deep. 
Ismene calathina. The Peruvian Daffodil. Large white flowers, veined green with 
a daffodil like cup. Fragrant. Jumbo size, 35c. L. 25c. 
I. calathina, var. Advance. This is an improved Ismene. The flowers are larger 
and whiter the scape longer. $1.00 ea. 
I. festalis. A hybrid with Elisena. Much more graceful and is pure white. $2.50. 
I. festalis Triumph. A larger, “improved” Festalis. $2.50. 
I. Olympia. The largest Ismene. The creamy to light yellow flower indicates it 
may be a cross with Sulphur Queen. $3.00. 
I. Sulphur Queen. A hybrid with I. amancaes. Sulphur yellow. $1.50. Rare in 
America but now offered at this low price. 
I. Macleana. Listed previously as Ismene calathina minor, an error. It is the 
smallest flowered Ismene I have seen. The small flowers are distinctly Ismene in 
appearance, borne on a taller scape than Calathina. Rare in cultivation. 75c. 
Leucojum aestivum. Hardy in north. Blooms often before snow is gone. Dainty 
white flowers, each petal with a vivid green dot. Plant 4” to 6” deep. Do well in 
full sun, a little better in half shade. 10c ea. 60c doz. 
L. sp. unknown. Larger and finer. 25c. $2.00 per doz.
