^CIDANTHE^A BlCOLOF^.j GODFRY. The Godfry Everblooming Fragrant Calla. This Caila is a perfect wonder in that it possesses the com- bined good points of all known varieties of the popular house Calia (Ethiopica). It has the habit of the very dwarf sorts, by blooming when very small, growing on through the various stages of dwarf, half dwarf and large sorts up to Giantissima, with its immense leaves and flowers, and long stems. It also has the peculiar fragrance of C. Fragrans; the everblooming quality of C. Childsiana: the refined beauty of C. White Lady; the robust heaith and vigor of the oid house Calla, To all these may be added the novel quality or summer blooming in the garden, if treated a- a summer flowering bulb. We hardly need to say more. Every window garden, to be complete, must have a Godfry Calla. Good Flowering Bulbs—30e. each; 3 for 75c. New Giant Calla, Giantissima, Most superb of all Callas. Leaves two feet long and flowers a foot in length, three times larger than any other Calla. It is a strong, quick grower, but requires a large pot and a little time to bring it to perfection. Foliage very rich dark green. Flowers snow-white and open unusually flat and broad. _We hajrejiajl_single plants showing 10 or more of these mas- n i fi c e n t bios so m s at once. 25c. each ; 5 for $1.00.
