CROSMAX BROTHERS' CATALOGUE.
OXALIS.
MADEIRA VINE.
An excellent climber, which makes a good screen for windows, etc.; also fine
for baskets and out-door situations.
Grows very rapidly, is quite tender, and
should necessarily be taken up and
stored during winter in a cool, dry cellar, secure from frost. Each, 10c, doz.,
75c
MYOSOTIS—(Forget-Me-Not.)
These have always been favorites
everywhere. The plants like a moist,
cool situation, but succeed in any fair
garden soil.
Jlyosotis (Forget-Me-Not), blue,
20c each.
OXALIS.
One of the prettiest plants we are
acquainted with for borders or edgings
of beds and walks ; forms fine round-
headed specimens about a foot in height
by the same in breadth ; leaves are in
nine divisions ; flowers of bright purplish pink and borne well above the
foliage; bulbs are small, and should be
planted one or two inches apart in the spring,
every one of which will produce a good plant;
lift bulbs in the fall and store safely away.
Oxalis lasiaudra, per 100, 50c, per doz., 10c
• TIGRIDIA.
^■~Z Curious and beautiful shell-like flowers, producing an abundance of bloom for a long time.
The bulbs should be taken up in the autumn, before
severe frosts, and removed to a dry cellar and
covered with sand.
Conchlflora, yellow, with dark spots ; each 8c.,
4 for 25c, doz. 75c
Pavonia, red, with dark spots ; each 8c, 4 for
25c, doz. 75c.
TRITOMA—(Red-Hot Poker.)
This splendid late flowering herbaceous plant
throws up a strong flowering stem from three to
five feet in height, with a large spike of rich
orange-red tinted flower tubes, called in Europe
the " Red-Hot Poker." It is admirably adapted
to this climate, and will thrive in any ordinary
garden soil; they delight in a moist soil, and
should, during dry weather, be duly supplied with
water. The Tritoma is quite hardy in this latitude, and is occasionally left out during winter ;
but for safety we would advise taking up the plants in autumn and removing to a
cool cellar, covering the roots with earth or sand.
Uvaria, exceedingly fine : good roots, each 20c.
GIANT SPIDER LILY.
This magnificent South Florida Lily produces large clusters of from twenty to
twenty-five flowers, and usually two or more flower stems at the same time. The
flowers are airy and fragile appearing and deliciousiy sweet scented. Fine for
forcing in winter for cut flowers. Bulbs each, 250.
