ACIDANTHERA MURIELAE 
Delightfully Fragrant 
FRAGRANT ABYSSINIAN SWORD FLOWER. Foliage, gen- 
eral growth and habit of the Gladioli. Delightfully fragrant 
cream white flowers with a decided blotch at the base of 
each petal of plum purple. August and September flower- 
ing, same culture as for Gladioli. May be planted in pots 
in July and August and then brought indoors before frost 
to flower during October and November; makes a color- 
ful and delightfully fragrant pot plant. The JUMBO 
BULBS that we offer will produce more than one flower 
spike in most cases. Extra Selected Jumbo Bulbs, $1.55 
for 10; $13.00 per 100. 
CALLA LILIES 
ELLIOTTIANA. The Golden Yellow Calla. Very fine for 
garden planting. Our large jumbo size bulbs will produce 
several flowers during the growing season. The beautiful 
large green leaves are delightfully spotted white for a 
charming effect. Extra selected bulbs, $1.00 each; $9.00 
for 10. 
REHMANNI. The Pink Calla. Not as tall as the yellow 
calla. Many flowers are produced during the growing sea- 
son; delightful leaves. Quite rare. Extra selected bulbs, 
$1.00 each; $9.00 for 10. 
GLORIOSA 
The climbing Lily of South Africa 
The lovely large reflexed lily-like flowers are very beau- 
tiful indeed. The stamens and pistel are very pronounced 
greatly adding to their beauty. One flower arranged in a 
corsage will immediately cause attention as they are not 
well known and look so much like an orchid. Need some 
support — a trellis or canes as they climb 3 to 5 feet. Also 
fine as pot plants where they can be trained for effect on 
well arranged wires. 15 and more flowers per plant. 
ROTHSCHILDIANA. Orange with scarlet tips to the petals. 
Beautiful yellow anthers. Extra selected large tubers: 
$1.50 each; $4.25 for 3.

CALADIUM — FANCY LEAVED 
These variegated leaved plants are very popular for the 
colorful effects that can be arranged in the garden and 
they are valuable for indoor decoration. Ideally suited for 
planting as specimen plants in the garden, solid bed plant- 
ings, or as an edging under the trees where they will get 
some sun. They will thrive in full sun or partial shade. 
New leaves are produced all summer long to keep the 
plants fresh and colorful until frost. Also make ideal pot 
plants for patio or indoor decoration — window boxes too. 
For garden planting we suggest 3 bulbs of one variety to 
a clump. For edging or solid bed planting 12 to 18 inches 
apart.
