(Easter in 1903 comes April 12th. ) HARRISII. The Bermuda Easter Lily. ga@S-Extra Select Stock.-@q
We havea splendid stock of this important variety grown especially for us by one of the best growers on the Island, who writes us regarding them as follows:
‘| believe these bulbs to be the best stock leaving Bermuda this or any previous season, perfectly free from disease, no longiflorum mixed with them and worth 50 per cent. more to the grower than nine-tenths of the stock leaving the Colony this season.”
The appearance of the bulbs seems to fully warrant the above strong statement, and we do not anticipate that there will be any cause for complaint this season.

Our supply of these are due to arrive early in October, earlier shipments are liable to be immature. To those who grow a houseful there should be no trouble to get them in for Easter even if planted as late as November, but to the florist who only grows a few hundred it will be safer to depend on Harrisii.

OF SEASONABLE PLANTS FOR FLORISTS
Our stock of decorative plants, such as Palms, Ferns, Pandanus, Ficus, Araucaria, etc., etc., is, as usual at this season of the year, very complete in a full line of all popular sizes, and the quality is of the same high standard for which our stock is celebrated. Whenever possible, we solicit a personal inspection of our stock. We invite you to visit us at any time.
OUR MEASUREMENT OF PLANTS, where given, as in the case of Araucarias, Palms, etc., etc., means the height of the plant from the top of the pot to the top of the plant in its natural position. We make this explanation of our way of measuring as many growers, contend that the proper measurement is from the bottom of the pot to the tip of the longest leaf, and make their offers in that way.

Hardy Azalea Mollis. ror Forcing.
These varieties have for many years been very popular for forcing in Europe, and have in recent years met with consider- able favor here in the United States, and when better known are certain to gain in popularity, especially for early forcing.
We are handling the stock of one of the most successful specialists, and can supply in November fine bushy plants, 12 to 15 inches high, finely set with buds, $4.50 per dozen ; $35.00 per 100.
Special Prices for Immediate Orders
We are now booking orders for fall delivery. Buyers who use a quantity of this most popular Easter blooming plant will find it to their interest to place their orders for next season’s wants early, thereby securing the choice of the stock at lowest cost for transportation, as the plants can be forwarded with perfect safety during October, by fast freight, even to the most distant points.
Our growers in Belgium are among the most successful men handling Azaleas ; they have been specialists in this line for many years, and their principal stock is sent to us.
All of our importations of Azaleas are sent here in bulk, and are all re-packed at our own nurseries, so that any plants that may have not carried well are set aside. This insures our customers of securing only first-class stock, which cannot be compared with cheap assorted case lots, which are made up in Belgium and distributed on this side just as received, frequently not only containing damaged plants, but also, as a rule, many varieties not at all suited to the American trade.
The varieties we supply are only the most popular sorts suited to the American market. Our own representatives make personal inspection of the plants in Bel- gium previous to shipment, thus enabling us to guarantee satisfaction.

The strain of Tuberous Rooted Begonias which we handle is the product of one of the foremost specialists in Europe, whose product cannot be excelled, if equalled. The price is as low as
is consistent with good quality, and while it will not compare with |
indifferent cheap strains, is especially appreciated by the retail florist who grows for the spring trade to sell when in bloom.

COLEUS THYRSOIDEUS.
Carex Japonica Variegata.
An exquisitely graceful new Japanese grass with slender green foliage, edged white. 75 cts. per dozen ; $6.00 per I00.
Coleus Thyrsoideus. (The Flowering Coleus.)
Entirely distinct from the varieties of Coleus heretofore known, all of which were grown for their beautifully colored and variegated foliage. which comes from Central Africa, is not a foliage plant, its leaves being plain green ; but it is a really grand flowering plant, and a winter flowering plant at that, its season of flowering being from the Christmas Holidays until late in March.
This species,
The plant is of strong growth, attaining a height of 2 to 2% feet, and produces dense cylindrical spikes one inch in diameter and from 6 to 12 inches long, of beautiful rich blue flowers, which remind one of a spike of blue Larkspur. Blue flowers at all seasons of the year are not plentiful and always much sought after, especially so during the winter season. We consider this plant a perfect gem and a plant that has a great future as a winter flowering pot plant.

DEUTZIA LEMOINEI.
Deutzias for Forcing.
Gracilis. We have a large stock of this standard variety in strong two-year-old-plants, suitable for 6 and 7-inch pots, 75 cents per dozen; $6.00 per 100; $50.00 per 1000. Strong one-year-old plants, 60 cents per dozen; $4.00 per 100; £35.00 per 1000.
Gracilis Rosea. Identical with Deutzia gracilis in general
habit, but with flowers fully double the size of that graceful |
variety, to which is added the additional charm of being suffused with a delicate rosy tint just sufficient to relieve the dead white which is objectionable in the type, and which will undoubtedly place itin the front rank of shrubs for winter forcing.
Strong two-year-old plants, suitable for 6-inch pots, $1.00 per dozen; $8.00 per 100. Strong one-year-old plants 60 cents per dozen; $4.50 per 100; $40.00 per 1000.
(Llemoinei.
Deutzia Lemoinei is now a standard forcing
variety, and when better known will no doubt entirely sup- |
plant Deutzia Gracilis for this purpose. Not only is it valuable for forcing, but it is equally good for the garden, being just as hardy as the type, while its flowers are three times as large, and are produced in broad-based cone-shaped heads of from 20 to 30 flowers each, which are of the purest white.
We offer strong two-year-old plants for forcing, suitable for 6 and 7-inch pots, $1.00 per dozen ; $8.00 per 100; $75.00 per ooo. Strong one-year-old plants, 60 cents per dozen ; $4.50 per 100; $40.00 per 1000.

entirely of varieties suitable for florists’ use.
Choice Varieties
New Adiantum Charlotte.
Our illustration gives a faint idea of the beauty and grace of this new Maidenhair ; it is entirely distinct from all other varie- ties, and even more graceful than 4. gracil/imum, and possess- ing the advantage of having much stouter, stiffer stems, on ac- count of which it forms more shapely plants, and increases its value for cutting purposes.

of Special Merit.
Adiantum Rhodophyllum.
This variety is always scarce, and while it does not compare with Farleyense in a large specimen, in a small plant it resem- bles it very much, and has the advantage of succeeding under ordinary cultivation.
2-inch pots, 75 cents per dozen; $5.00 per Ioo.
Asplenium Nidus Avis.
The ‘‘ Bird’s Nest Fern.’’ A fine, thrifty lot of strong 3-inch pot plants, 25 cents each ; $2.50 per dozen.
Cibotium Schiedei.
This is undoubtedly the finest of all Tree Ferns in use for dec- orative purposes, and, though appearing very soft, is in fact very hardy, as has been demonstrated by the leading decorators throughout the country, succeeding admirably as a house plant, which is not the case with any other Tree Fern. It possesses a graceful and delicate appearance that is found in no other plant. It is a variety that is always scarce and difficult to obtain. We have succeeded in growing a fine lot of this variety, and offer beautiful decorative plants of it.

Microlepia Hirta Cristata.
We consider this one of the finest Ferns in cultivation to grow into specimen plants, and while it is of such a delicate, graceful appearance that would lead one to think that it was useless as a house fern, it is nevertheless one of the best for this purpose, and when well grown meets with as ready sale as the popular Boston Fern.

Without a doubt the greatest acquisition in Ferns that has been introduced in many years and one that we believe will become fully as popular as the Boston Fern. We are now booking orders for delivery early in February which will be filled in strict rotation. We anticipate that the demand for this grand Fern will be greater than has ever been experienced for a new decorative plant, and that it will tax the introducers’ ability to produce sufficient stock, early orders are therefore advised ‘to insure prompt delivery.

IRIS KAIMPFERI (JAPANESE IRIS).
Iris Kem pferi (Japanese Iris).
These magnificent Iris are among the most beautiful of our |
summer flowering plants, and are destined to become more popular every season. They commence blooming about the middle of June, and continue in flower for five or six weeks. Many of these flowers measure from 10 to 12 inches in diameter, and rival the orchids in their rich colorings and markings. We
offer 24 distinct varieties, which were selected while in flower
from over 75 of the best Japanese introductions.
Date=Dogu. Rich violet purple, with golden centre.
Ho=0-j0. Six large petals of a rich velvety purple deepen- ing to the base of the petals.
Hlano=no=-mishiki. Bright violet purple, with white veins.
Iso-no=nami. Ground color silvery white, delicately veined and traced with violet, and golden rayed centre.

Primula Veris Superba. (New Giant Hardy Primrose. )
In size of flower, this is fully three times as large as any hardy Primrose, the average size of the flower being over one inch, and frequently over 2 inches, with trusses of bloom 6 inches in diameter. It is perfectly hardy, grows from 10 to 12 inches high, and begins to flower earlier and continues in bloom longer than any other plant of the same family known tous. Its greatest merit consists in the fact that it is not only one of the easiest plants to force, and sells on sight when brought into flower during the winter and early spring months, and especially so when grown as an Easter plant.
The plants can be stored in cold frames, successive batches being brought into a cool greenhouse to flower as required, allow- ing about four to five weeks’ time to bring them into full bloom.
Strong plants 75 cents per dozen; $6.00 per 100.
