HARDY BULBS 71 



ZEPHYRANTHES 



Zephyranthes, or Amaryllis Candida is the only really 

 hardy member of this genus in British gardens which 

 are not specially favoured with a mild climate, and it 

 will seldom prove a permanent success unless planted in 

 dry soil in front of a greenhouse or stove and exposed 

 to the sun. It has beautiful white flowers in autumn, 

 and should be planted about three inches deep in spring.
