This photo of a prepared 
Amaryllis bulb, cut through, 
shows how the special treat- 
ment of these bulbs in Holland 
has produced a fully formed 
flower bud inside the bulb as 
early as October 16. This ad- 
vanced flower bud will burst 
into full bloom around the 
holidays—several months a- 
head of unprepared bulbs! 
émaziag PREPARED AMARYLLIS 
This outstanding Holland strain is specially prepared for early blooming, enabling you to 
have Amaryilis in bloom for the holidays. They produce immense-size flowers, beautifully 
formed. Usually four flowers are borne on the stem, and often a second stem appears after 
the first has finished blooming! This is a selected Holland strain of the purest solid colors, not to be 
confused with ordinary Amaryllis. Easy to grow, they bloom in only 6 to 8 weeks after planting. 
Just pot and place in warm, lighted room. Bulbs arrive from Holland about mid-October.

Magic Lily of the Orient 
Known as the ‘Hardy Amaryllis,”’ 
they produce daffodil-like foliage in 
spring. This dies down in early summer 
and, as if by magic, a flower spike sud- 
denly appears in August. The soft pink, 
lily-like flowers are delightfully fragrant 
and are carried on 2 to 3-foot stems. 
Perfectly hardy; once established, they 
reappear each year.
