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. 
ISMENE 
Peruvian Daffodils — See illustration, page 39 
CALATHINA. Lily white flowers resembling an Amaryllis.

ing. Delightful lily-like fragrance that is lovely. Extra 
selected large bulbs, $6.75 for 10; $16.50 for 25; $65.00 
persO0; 
CALATHINA ADVANCE. While this new variety is the 
same color as Calathina the flowers are twice as large and 
it grows two feet high; very outstanding in the garden or 
grown as a pot plant. Delightfully fragrant. $8.75 for 10; 
$21.00 for 25.

GALTONIA CANDICANS 
Hyacinthus Candicans 
The Great Snow White Summer Flowering Hyacinth. This 
Cape Hyacinth is a valuable summer-flowering bulb with 
long, slender leaves and a candelabra-like arrangement of 
thirty or so pure white, bell-shaped blossoms borne on a 
scape from 3 to 4 feet tall. Distributed about the borders 
in groups or massed against shrubbery, they are very ef- 
fective, giving lines of definition and strength to the riotous 
growth of summer flowers. Planted with Gladioli they 
form an imposing contrast and last a long time in bloom. 
In every way they may be treated like Gladioli, but south 
of Philadelphia the bulbs may be left out-of-doors over 
the winter with a light covering and will increase and give 
better results every year. Extra selected bulbs, $2.75 for 
10; $25.00 per 100.
