LANCE or STRAP LEAVES 
An entirely new type of Caladium, available now for the first 
time in commercial quantities but still very scarce and regarded 
“‘collectors’ items’’. Known as Lance-, Strap-, or Arrow-Leaf 
varieties, they are low-growing, generally having narrow, long 
leaves and making a colorful and interesting pot. Quantities 
are too limited to list varieties, but we will ship in named 
varieties in reds, pinks, whites and variegated, 25 each of 
four varieties, or in multiples of 25; minimum total order, 100 
bulbs. Bulbs in these varieties generally run smaller in size 
than regular Caladiums, but we will ship a good No. 1 size 
bulb. Priced at: 
$25.00 per 100 $225.00 per 1000
