GRIFFITH & TURNER CO., BALTIMORE, MD.
BERMUDA EASTER LILY,
(.LII.IUM HARRISII.)
CHE "True Bermuda Easter Lily" is one of the
grandest bulbs introduced in many, years.
They are easy of culture, early, flower quiclily,
and can be had in bloom for riiristmas from
bulbs planted as late as September.
They are, ho^yever, mostly grown for Easter
Elowers, and, of course, will produce more
flowers when given a longer time. They have
become very popular, and deservedly so, as they
come quickly into bloom, and produce pure
white, gracefully formed and delightfully fra-
grant flowers.
The quantity of bloom produced is marvelous
the average production of bulbs 5 to 7 inches in
circumference, even when forced, is from 5 to 8
flowers, and of bulbs 7 to 9 inches, 8 to 12 flowers.
Blooming Plants in Pots form typical Easter
offerings and presents for decoration of the win-
dow, table, house, or church. Nothing is more
appropriately beautiful and highly appreciated.
Thousands upon thousands are sold in the large
cities every winter for this purpose.
