Amaryllis Hippeastrum 
One of the most popular of the bulbous flowers for indoor 
growing or for growing in the open in warmer sections. Huge 
Lilylike flowers sometimes 6 to 8 inches across borne on strong 
thick stalks. Generally the bulbs bloom before they show leaves 
but when watered more liberally in the beginning, the leaves will 
show together with the flowers. Can be saved year after year. 
Should not be planted in too large pots and only be some 2 inches 
down in the soil the rest of the large bulbs being left free. Our 
stock is strong, beautiful and free flowering with the colors 
segregated. We deliver the bulbs, giants of 12 inches circumference 
in most cases with the buds showing sothat you are certain to 
obtain flowers, sometimes even 2 and 3 stalks, each giving three to 
four blooms.

Anemone Coronaria 
This is together with the Ranunculus, one of the little treasu- 
res of the bulbous world with their bright colored flowers which 
look like small Chrysanthemums. They are ideal as cut flowers, 
with stems like knitting needles some 8 to 12 inches long, but 
they are also highly suitable for clumps in the border and in 
nooks and crannies in the rock garden. South of Washington D.C. 
they are hardy but in colder sections it is better to store them 
over Winter. The bulbs look like a Dahlia tuber and should be 
covered about three inches deep and planted some 6 inches apart.

midsummer flowering bulbs attaining a height of three feet, with stiff upright spikes

deep in a sunny spot and well drained soil. Mulch thoroughly for winter and give a top 
dressing of old cow manure or bone meal in Spring. Cover well in colder sections.
