Stove bulbs, except nepale'nsis. Divisions of the roots 

 and seeds ; if by the former, take a pot that has been 

 kept dry all the winter, say in March, turn it out, and 

 separate the bulbs carefully, without bruising them. 

 Place each bulb, with the end farthest from the old 

 tuber, uppermost in the centre of a clean pot, covering it 

 with an inch or two of soil, the pot being five or ten 

 inches, or any intermediate size, in diameter, according 

 to the size of the bulb ; peat, loam, leaf-mould, old 

 cow-dung, and sand in equal proportions, with good 

 drainage. Give no water until the bud appears above 

 ground, then water and place in a strong, moist heat, 

 growing vigorously, and training as the plant proceeds. 

 When done flowering, and the leaves turn yellow, refrain 

 from watering, and shortly after turn the plants on their 

 broadsides in a dry place, and allow them to rest until 

 next season.
