MURIELAE. One of the most delightful of summer- 
flowering bulbs for outdoor gardens. The large blossoms 
are three to four inches across, sweetly scented, pure 
white with starry throat blotches of crimson maroon. 
A mass of six or more of these showy flowers suspended 
on strong graceful stems is most distinctive. They are 
excellent for cutting, blossom through most of August 
and September, and are rarely damaged by wind or 
rain. Height — 21% to 3 feet. A recent introduction 
from western Abyssinia. Handle much the same as 
Gladiolus, but should not be planted in spring until 
ground warms up. Extra choice.

Agapanthus 
The popular ‘‘Blue Lily of the Nile’. Native of Africa and cousin of the true Lilies. Spectacularly 
beautiful and easily grown. Ideal for the conservatory, window garden, living room, terrace, or set 
in protected places in the open. Will continue to bloom freely every summer, year after year, if given 
large enough pot, plenty of food and water. Usually grown in large pots or tubs, but may be bedded 
outdoors in southern regions. Full Cultural Instructions included with each shipment. 
AFRICANUS MOOREANUS MINOR. A most interesting dwarf form with pleasing blue flowers 
in small umbels on 18” stems. Unlike other varieties which are evergreen, foliage is semi-deciduous 
in winter. Hardy in southern regions; thriving in partial shade, in rich humusy loan. For pot culture 
it is best to plant several roots in an 8” pot. Fine for cutting. Early summer bloom.
