FRITILLARIAS 
These bulbs are shipped Sept. 1 to Dec. 1 only. 
FRITILLARIAS are lovely bulbous plants of 
the West belonging to the lily family, and bear 
such appropriate local names as ‘Mission Bell’, 
“Red Bell’, “Yellow Bells” and ‘“Brown” or 
“Chocolate” lilies. They flower March-April, ac- 
cording to locality. Since the character and re- 
quirements vary so much I must for clarity divide 
them into two groups. 
FRITILLARIA SPECIES 
(Species pictured but not listed; cannot be 
supplied) 
GROUP 1 
Group 1 Fritillaria are woodland plants and must be ir 
shade. The stems somewhat like those of a true lily are tall 
and leafy. They require a well drained woodsy soil and are 
quite easily grown. They have the habit of resting a year or 
two after flowering so only a part of a planting may be ex- 
pected to flower any year. Those resting have no stem but 
have a broad single ovate leaf flat on the ground. The finest 
are: 
Lanceolata is from 1% to 3 ft. high, with a few to many 
flowers. They are green and brown, mottled prettily. 
10 cts. each; $1 per doz.; $7.50 per 100. 
Recurva much resembles a lily and is the finest of the world’s 
Fritillaria. 1144 to 3 ft. in height with stout stems nodding 
at top. The strongly recurved flowers are orange scarlet, 
the throat flecked with yellow. 10 cts. each; $1 per doz.; 
$7.50 per 100. 
We pay postage on orders over $5.00. See page 2. 
For Southern California Erythroniums, Californica Bicolor, Hartweggii and Hendersonnii are the most dependable. 

FRITILLARIAS 
1 and 4, Lanceolata. 82, Recurva. 3, Pudica. 5, Liliacea. 6, Pluriflora. 
7, Purdyti, varied form. 
GROUP 2 
Group 2 Fritillarias are natives of open spaces and must 
be in full sun or at most very light shade. Stems are from 6 
to 10 inches high with few leaves and with flower heads of 
one to several broad open bells. They thrive in a friable well 
drained loamy or gritty soil. 
Pluriflora grows 6 to 12 in. high, leafy at base with many very 
beautiful large open bells of a lovely deep rose. Next to 
F. Recurva, our most beautiful Fritillaria. None this year. 
Pudica. From 4 to 6 in. high, with rather large basal leaves 
and erect stems, bearing 3 to 6 nodding bells 1% to 1% in. 
long and pure gold in color. Absolutely hardy and a gem 
for the rock garden. 10 cts. each; $1 per doz. 
Very Large Bulbs of any of These at Double Price 
Purdyii in this original form, was discovered and named 30 
years ago, its locality lost and I am now able to offer for 
the first time. It is 4 to 9 inches tall with one to seven 
lovely large bells, waxy white, flecked scarlet. Unusually 
fine and very rare. None this year.
