Amaryllis Hybrids 
There is nothing that will give the amateur greater pleasure for 
growing in the house as well as in the garden. These giant-flowering 
Amaryllis produce a magnificent blossom with the least possible care 
and trouble. Planted in a pot in the early winter they will bloom about 
6 or 8 weeks after planting. Bulbs may be kept dormant and planted a 
week or ten days apart so that you will have succession of bloom 
throughout the entire winter. In the garden they may be planted dur- 
ing March, April and May, depending upon locality, and they will 
bloom during June and July as easily as Gladioli. The bulbs throw a 
vigorous stem with four to six gigantic blooms, ranging in color from 
pure white grounds with varied markings of rose, red and crimson to 
the richest self colors as scarlet, crimson and bright red. From 
November until April we can supply bulbs guaranteed to bloom.
