AMARYLLIS 
Place the bulbs in pots four to six inches or 
more in diameter, and cover only to the shoul- 
der of the bulb, leaving the neck protruding. 
Use a rich sandy loam, mixed with some bone- 
meal or sheep manure. Water sparingly at first 
but increase as the growth increases, A tem- 
perature of from 50 to 60 degrees is the most 
suitable. The flower spikes, often 3 to a bulb, 
will develop quickly, and each bears several of 
the immense, beautifully colored, Lily-like 
flowers. 
Giant American Hybrids 
The finest race of Amaryllis in cultivation, 
exceeding in size and fine form of their 
flowers as well as in the diversity of colors and 
markings, all former hybrids. Mixed colors.
