Eucharis 
Eucharis isthe Greek word for very graceful, and in addition to meriting such 
_a title, this Amaryllid is of great beauty and delightful fragrance. 
AMAZONICA, or grandiflora, comes from Brazil and is more often than not referred to as 
the “Amazon Lily”, while some call it ‘“The Star of Bethlehem.” Its white, star-like flowers, 
very much like huge, white daffodils of rich, waxy texture, measure 4-inches across, and are 
borne on long, stout stems from 1 to 24% feet high. Its broad leaf blades, a foot or more 
long, are ever green. It flowers so profusely that it can well be used for charming bouquets. 
Ideal for pot culture in the north, or gardens in warmer climes, it can be brought into 
bloom several times a year by following our special cultural instructions. 
$1.20 each 3 for $3.30 
Ismenes 
or Hymenocallis. This is the fragrant “Sea Daffodil”, or “Spider Lily” from 
Peru. Its large, lily-like flowers have petals that are notched and fringed, defi- 
nitely most unusual, entrancing and unlike anything else! Ismenes are always a 
center of delighted interest, whether used as a focal point in southern gardens, 
or as house plants in northern climates. 
The large, healthy bulbs, which we at the Barnes supply, may be forced into 
bloom with excellent results in May, when potted early. In the south, they 
should be planted in late Spring in rich, sandy soil in a warm, sunny place. 
. . . the only species with beautiful, deep yellow flowers.

Chlidanthus 
Or Hidalgoa, is the Amaryllid that is somewhat allied to the Dahlia 
or Coreopsis. It comes from Central America and will prove con- 
siderable of an ornament to southern gardens, where it should oc: 
cupy a permanent location. North of Washington, D. C., however, 
it will make a wonderful indoor plant . . . a veritable boon to 
apartment dwellers!

After flowering, care should be taken to have the bulbs make their 
annual growth. And to make this care the easier for you we send 
you complete cultural instructions, just as we do with all our other
