COOPE'RIA. (Named after Mr. Cooper, gardener at 

 Wentworth House, in Yorkshire, for many years. Nat. 

 ord. Amaryllids [Amaryllidaceae]. Linn. 6-Hexandria, 

 i-Monogynia. Allied to Zephyranth.es.) 



We would have named this genus " The Evening 

 Star." It is anomalous amongst its race for first 

 opening its starry-white flowers in the cool of the even- 

 ing. They possess the fragrance of the primrose. 

 Although probably hardy, they are best treated as half- 

 hardy, in a border of deep, sandy soil, under a west wall, 

 where they flower all the summer, and produce seeds. 

 Each stalk produces but one flower ; but a tuft of bulbs 

 would produce a fine effect. Offsets and seeds, sown in 

 spring ; sandy loam.

 metra.)
