AMARYLLTS 
For years we have been hoping to find a strain of Winter Flowering Amaryllis that would be superior to others to offer 
to our customers. Many requests have come in each year. Finally, we have found them. The incomparable LUDWIG STRAIN 
from Holland more than answers the wildest desires for these remarkable flowers. These are not mixed seedlings which are 
so frequently sold to customers, but are all specially selected NAMED VARIETIES which are propagated vegetatively with 
some difficulty in Holland so that you may grow these aristocrats by name in your own home. 
There are very few bulbs available in each variety, the demand is great for them. They are a remarkable investment, for with 
proper care, these same amaryllis bulbs will continue to flower each year, increasing in size and beauty for an indefinite time. 
DELIVERY DATE Due to the late maturing of these bulbs for maximum growth, they cannot be shipped from Holland until 
just before December 1. They will be forwarded to you as rapidly as possible. Incidentally, they make magnificent Christmas 
gifts for the horticulturally minded friend. Each bulb will be accompanied with growing instructions. The bulb flowers approxi- 
mately 6 to 8 weeks after planting.
