MEXICAN SHELL FLOWERS 
MEXICAN SHELL FLOWERS—TIGRIDIA 
Delivery February to April 
TIGRIDIAS have often been referred to as the fireworks 
of the garden, for the sudden opening of the flower bud into 
its glorious burst of color is as spectacular as a ‘Roman 
Candle”’ on a Fourth of July night. The flowers are large and 
come in a wide range of color, the throat is beautifully spot- 
ted and mottled in red and gold. 
The flower lasts but a day BUT a clump of these bulbs 
well planted in a sunny location will yield bloom all Summer. 
From a planting of but a dozen bulbs as many as 15 flowers 
may be open each day. 
The following are chosen for their brilliance, size and 
distinct colors:
