large bulbs. In our next, revised folder early in 1955 we will list all details 
of this find as well as offering a limited quantity of FRENCH strain hybrids

Hardy Amaryllis Imported From Japan 
Also known as the Japanese Magic Lily but botanically known as 
Lycoris Squamigera. These most interesting bulbs produce a magnificent 
: umbel of gorgeous, scented pink lilies slightly 
tinged lavender around the top of a stem 
about two feet tall around August 10th each 
year after foliage has died down early in June. 
Planted in groups of three or six bulbs per 
group in a sunny well drained location they 
multiply and need to be dug up and divided 
every three to four years.. Due to the lack of 
fo‘lage at the time of flowering it is helpful 
to plant a few petunia or dwarf mums in front 
of the groups to detract from the naked appear- 
4 ance of the flower stems. Requiring very little 
ipcare Mee 1p attention hardy Ameryllis would be ideal to 
plant on graves. 
Available June Ist to time the soil freezes and in blooming size
