/Nerine 
Despite the remarkable beauty of these handsome autumn- 
flowering bulbs from South Africa they are not as yet widely grown 
in this country. Yet their charm is irresistible and they are gaining 
rapidly in popularity, particularly in the deep south and other warm 
sections where they can be grown outdoors. In the north they are the 
finest of pot plants, and bloom abundantly year after year once they 
are well established. 
The individual flowers are of exquisite finely wrought tissue, with 
a sparkling quality unmatched by any other Amaryllis. Blooming 
period is September through January, depending upon the specie or 
variety. In the hands of good gardeners they are easily grown. A 
Van Tubergen specialty. 
BOWDENI. 9 to 10 beautiful rose-pink blossoms borne in large 
clusters about 15 inches above the ground. The finest of all. Septem- 
ber blooming. Each-85c, 3-$2.25, 6-$4.25. 
BOWDENI PINK BEAUTY. A deeper pink than the former; taller 
and very free flowering. Each-$1.05, 3-$2.85, 6-$5.25. 
FLEXUOSA ALBA. A tall, free flowering, pure white variety. Each- 
$1.30, 3-$3.60, 6-$6.50.

Lycoris 
Attractive, colorful, Amaryllis-like plants from China and Japan 
where they are held in highest esteem. The hardy species (all except 
L. aurea and L. radiata) should be planted in SEPTEMBER in light 
loose soil, full sun or light woodland shade. Set 4 inches deep, 6 to 8 
inches apart, and 3 or more in a group. The companionship of foliage 
plants is most welcome as the foliage of Lycoris is quite sparse. Be 
sure to order these EARLY, along wtih Colchicums, Galanthus and 
others that need to be planted in September. 
AUREA, Golden Spider Lily. A very rare and beautiful specie of 
golden yellow and orange. While completely hardy in the deep 
south, it can be grown successfully outdoors as far north as the 
District of Columbia if properly mulched. In the north it is an ex- 
cellent pot plant. Each-$1.40, 3-$3.90, 6-$7.25. 
INCARNATA, Fragrant flowers of dainty flesh pink or bright rose, 
6 to 12 clustered on one to two foot scapes. Hardy south of Long 
Island without protection; further north with protection. Each-75c, 
3-$2.05, 6-$3.95, 12-$7.90. 
RADIATA. The long undulating petals and stamens of these bright 
coral-red flowers have earned for them the common name “‘Red 
Spider Lily’’. It is hardy and very commonly grown along the Pacific 
coast and south of Washington, D. C. !n the North it makes a fine 
pot plant. Each-70c, 3-$1.95, 6-$3.80, 12-$7.60. 
SPRENGERI. Pretty rose-pink flowers on long pedicels. Reliably 
hardy in, the north when planted in sheltered spots with some winter 
protection. Completely hardy elsewhere. Each-$2.75. 
SQUAMIGERA (Amaryllis Halli—Hardy Amaryllis”). Perhaps 
the most popular of all the Lycoris; producing in late August and 
early September a beautiful display of large sparkling pink flowers 
tinged amethyst blue. The attractive green foliage is produced in 
spring and grows until July when it ripens and disappears. About a 
month later the flower stalks spring from the ground to a height of 
two or three feeet. Reliably hardy and unusual, and will thrive in 
partial shade. Set crown about 4 inches below surface of soil. Each- 
$1.30, 3-$3.60, 6-$6.50, 12-$13.00.
