The Nerine family offers bright often scarlet magenta yellow and white flowers with reflexed petals and long protruding stamens. Nerine Japonica or Japanese Spider Lily features gold-dusted petals, grown in ground or pots with four to six bulbs per seven or eight inch pot. Care tips include withholding water during rest for pot-grown spikes and using prepared bulb fibre bowls without drainage holes.
Plant bulbs with tips exposed and keep in darkness until green appears, then ease to light. Hyacinths, Daffodils, Freesias, Jonquils, and Narcissi are popular. Prepare for spring sowing, set asparagus crowns, and build frames for tomatoes and early cucumbers and melons.
An advertisement for fruit trees offers oranges and lemons at 2 shillings each and apples pears apricots peaches at 1 shilling 6d each. It claims 98 years of Shepherds sales, packing to ensure sturdy roots, freight extra, and a 6d charge for up to six trees plus 1d per tree beyond. A catalogue is available upon request.
