BULBS FOR THE WINTER WINDOW 
It is really not a very difficult matter to have winter 
window flowers, that is if you will not try to rush them 
too much, and will follow the directions in the leaflet that 
we send out with each lot of bulbs for forcing. 
AMARYLLIS GIANT HYBRIDS—No more spectacular pot 
bulb than this. Magnificent Lily-like flowers that may be 
rose, scarlet, crimson, all one color, or splashed against 
white. Mixed only, each 65c; 3 for $1.80; 10 for $5.25. 
EUCHARIS GRANDIFLORA—Lily of the Amazon. Waxen 
- blossoms, pure white, sparkling, formed in suggestion of 
Daffodil. Sweet perfume. Handle as a pot bulb, giving 
ample water, and keeping away from too much sun. May 
be brought into bloom several times each year by giving 
a short semi-rest, with scantier watering between each 
bloom-burst. Bulbs available all through year, Each $1.25; 
3 for $3.50. 
VELTHEIMIA VIRDIFO- 
LIA—A rather easy and 
certainly satisfyingly spec- 
tacular, pot bulb for win- 
ter bloom. From nests of 
glossy, crispy foliage rise, 
on 20 inch stems, massive 
flower trusses of rosy 
pink with buff shadings 
and cinnabar tones. The 
big bulbs ripen off after 
flowering, but will bloom 
again each winter for 
many years, so this is 
truly a long-time invest- 
ment in pleasure. Each 
65c; 3 for $1.80; 10 for 
$5.40.
