TRILLIUM 
The Trinity Lilies are the delight of shady places. Three- 
petal blossoms in white, blush rose, red plum, even lemon 
buff. Mixed species.

GRANDIFLORUM—Most impressive of the 
Trinity Lilies; snowy white, soon suffused 
with a rich pink that finally deepens to 
a royal rose. Loves rich moist woodlands, 
but will thrive in the garden if a bit of 
peat or leaf mold be added to the soil. 
Should have shade part’of the day.

TRITELEIA UNIFLORA VIOLACEA 
Spring Star Flower. Blossoms of softest blue suffusion, vary- 
ing to indigo, wide up-looking stars. For winter bloom, it is 
| even easier and surer than Sparaxis, 
and flowers for a full two months, often 
longer. It doesn't need to be set away 
in the dark to form roots, though it will 
do it no harm. We doubt that there is 
a winter bulb that is quicker, or more 
certain. You will like it, everyone does. 
It's winter hardy, too, and you can 
save the bulbs if you wish, by planting 
them out in the garden in the spring. This Triteleia comes 
from the Argentine. Technically it is now considered to be 
Broadiaea uniflora, variety coerulea, but it is very different, 
horticulturally, from all else that we know as Broadiaea. 
Bulbs are, by nature, rather small, and not very firm, but 
they all grow and flower delightfuly.

STERNBERGIA LUTEA 
Great gorious flower-cups of golden yellow in late September 
and October. Called Yellow Autumn Crocus, but really it is 
related to Amaryllis. Winter-hardy at Philadelphia, but in 
colder regions better mulch with straw, or protect with 
frame. May be grown as pot bulb too.
