The Great Ismene (fsmene Cafathena Grandiflcra) Those who are familiar with the true Giant ismene can not say enough in praise of its beauty and purity. The flowers are of very large size, like an Amaryllis, novel form of snowy whiteness, and are also exceedingly fragrant. It is really one of the most lovely of all the great Amaryllis tribe, having a peculiar grandeur which one can appreciate at sight, but cannot describe. Bulbs are large and strong and begin to flower in two or three weeks after planting, sending up tall flower stems, which bear several of its magnificent blossoms. As a pot plant it is grand, and as a garden bulb treated like a Gladiolus it is one of the choicest of all flowers. Do not fail to try it. It. will more than please you for it is superior to the Ber- muda Easter Lily as a flowering bulb. 15c each; 3 for 40c? § per dozen.
