Galochortis: Mariposa Culips 
Until one has seen a good collection of these plants, he has no idea how 
much Nature can do in the variation of one flower. One to many on a 
stem, wonderfully marked with eyes and dots, and penciling in rich colors, 
are characteristics. ‘‘Mariposa’’ is simply the Spanish8word for butterfly, and 
is applied to these Tulips because the eyes and markings are so like those 
on a butterfly’s wings.

is @ good grower, and the flowers are most satisfactory.

They grow from. 1 to 2 feet high and branch. The flowers are simply 
marvelous in their variety of colors and markings. Scarcely two are 
alike; ins a mixed lot they may vary through white, lilac to purple, 
and again through shades of pink to claret-red. In any mixture 
whites, more or less eyed, predominate. There is no better investment 
for the flower lover than a quantity of these bulbs. They thrive best 
in a rather porous soil, either sandy or gritty, and grow either in sun 
or light shade. Flowers are 2 to 4 inches in diameter. Mixed colors.

Caine (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 measuring 
14 inches across and flowering in long succession.

beauty, a mass of blue and white, intense and brilliant. They bloom at the 
time of the Crocuses, producing dwarf flower spikes, bearing from 12 to 15 
flowers of a sky-blue with a pure white heart, creating a lovely effect. 
They should be planted in the fall, 3 inches deep, about 18 bulbs to a square 
foot, in a sunny location or in half shade and in places. where they can 
remain undisturbed for a number of years. The flowers will cross with one 
another and will seed themselves, forming natural colonies. All are 6 to 7 
inches high, therefore excellent in the rockery as well.

Celecote Freesias (Large Flowered) 
Without doubt the most sweetly scented flower grown; a single bloom 
permeates the living-room with its delicate perfume. Although they are 
quite popular and very easily raised, we suggest the following treatment: 
Procure the bulbs as early as possible and plant them in August, 6 to 25 
bulbs for a single pan. The soil should be a mixture of good loam. The 
bulbs planted early, say August and September, must be placed outdoors 
until cold weather sets in; must be regularly watered and kept growing all 
the time. In November, before frosts appear, the pots should be placed 
in the window of a cool room.
