destroy all plants of this sort, if not guarded against ; they 

 should be carefully covered in frosty weather, although, as a 

 rule, damp, as in the case of the Auricula, is more injurious to 

 them than cold. During the period of blooming, they should 

 be kept shaded from the glaring siui ; and with this cafe, the 

 deep orange and rich yellow, contrasted with the black and 

 maroon colouring in the segments, cannot fail to please the 

 grower, expanding as they do in the early months of the year.
