Giant American Hybrids. We believe this is the finest race of 
Amaryllis in cultivation. Flowers are of enormous size, fine form, 
and of a great diversity of colors. They make splendid pot-plants 
for store sales, and when in bloom sell on sight at a good price. 

Calla Lilies 
If Callas are wanted by Parcel Post, add 20c. per doz. for postage, 
to the First and Second Zones; for other Zones, please add addi- 
tional postage.
