J^olices of new and beautiful Plants. 409 



giving an abundance when in flower. After the plants have bloom- 

 ed, the pots may be removed from the house to a sheltered place, 

 where they may remain till spring, when the bulbs should be turn- 

 ed out of the pots into the open border to recover their strength, 

 as forcing reduces them so much that they do not flower again for 

 two or more years. This, however, is not of any importance, 

 as the roots are cheaply purchased, or a stock can be easily rais- 

 ed in the greatest abundance. 



There are few plants which have a finer appearance in the 

 green-house, than the white lily; its large snowy, symmetrical 

 flowers, on a tall, erect and stately stem, diffusing their fragrance 

 tliroughout the house, renders it an object of general admiration; 

 add to this its easy management, and there are few bulbs which 

 will aflbrd more pleasure. We presume it may be managed with 

 nearly equal success in a parlor, though we have never tried the 

 experiment; but we should be glad to see the method put in 

 practice. These few observations we hope will serve to induce 

 the cultivation of the white lily for early blooming more general.
