FANCY LEAVED CALADIUM 
Delivery January to May 
WHY should we be prejudiced in favor of flowers when 
foliage plants deserve their share of the spotlight, too? 
There is no grander plant either for variety of color, ease 
of growing and many uses than the Fancy-leaved Caladium. 
For specimen plants or for garden culture it is “‘tops” in 
color. I have grown it in sand only with chemical nutri- 
ents for food. I have grown it from small pips in the gar- 
den as a “‘background” for my Tuberous Begonias. I have 
failed to find an equal for its value when it comes to the 
need of a high-class foliage plant, and I herewith offer 
what I consider ten of the finest varieties. Full cultural 
directions included with each order. 
CANDIDUM. Snow-white with green veins and network. 
Narrow green border. Fine Easter variety. 
THOS. TOMLINSON. Center of leaf and blotches shining 
crimson. Narrow border. Strong grower. 
ITACAPUS. Entire leaf dark red of a rust shade; narrow 
border with red dottings. One of the most beautiful 
Caladiums. 
JOHN PEED. Bold plant with many leaves. Center trans- 
parent cherry-red, light green margin. 
LORD DERBY. Delicate transparent rose with dark green 
ribs and narrow green edge. Abundant foliage. Very 
similar to “Our Red.” 
MACAHYBA. Dark moss green profusely spotted and 
mottled with transparent lilac blotches. Heavy scarlet 
ribs. 
STOPLIGHT. Crimson. Narrow green border. Strong 
grower. 
MRS. H. B. HALDEMAN. Glowing-bright pink with nar- 
row green edge. Varies to a deep pink according to 
soil used. 
POECILE ANGLAIS. Dwarf, many-leaved type with waxy 
leaves of deep crimson having a bluish overcast and 
oordered metallic green. One of the best. 
MRS. SANDER. Roundish, dark green leaf, heavily blot- 
ched. Transparent deep rose. 
Your choice of any of the above, 35c each; $3.50 per 
dozen. Postage 10c each or 25c per dozen.
