Meade Strain Hybrid Amaryllis. Produces large, 
showy blooms in a wide range of colors. 
Imported Dutch Amaryllis 
Widely publicized in the flower maga- 
zines and general publications, the new, 
improved Dutch Hybrid Amaryllis (Hip- 
peastrum) are in good demand. For their 
mammoth, majestic blooms, up to 8” 
across, and superb color and form, they 
easily justify the premium prices which 
they command. The mammoth size bulbs 
which we import, measuring full 3%4’- 
3%’ in diameter, make several blooms 
to the siem and usually two stems per 
bulb. They make a truly sensational pet 
plant and the blooms are long lasting.

Giant Hybrid, Meade Strain, American 
DELIVERY: October to March 
The American-grown Meade Strain of Amaryllis (Hippeastrum) makes gorge- 
ous giant blooms in colors ranging from near white (with thin pencil striping) 
through various shades of pink to deepest reds and candy stripes. They are used 
extensively in the South for outdoor planting and they are popular bulbs in the 
North for indoor growing in pots. For indoor flowering, the bulbs should be potted 
in a mixture of fibrous loam, leafmold and sand, with liquid manure applied dur- 
ing the blooming period. They may be potted as soon as available, with the 
shoulder of the bulb protruding from the soil. If kept at a fairly even temperature 
of 65 degrees F. they will develop a good vigorous root system. When the 
weather warms and after blooming, the potted plant can be placed in the soil 
outdoors and taken in again in the fall for flowering indoors. In mild climates 
bulbs may be kept outdoors in the ground from season to season; elsewhere they 
must be lifted and stored in dry sand through the winter months.
