Another Hybrid Tigridia 



None of the tiger flowers are striped, which seems to 

 make their name inappropriate, as already suggested; neverthe- 

 less there does seem to be something tiger-like about this richly ca- 

 parisoned and oriental-seeming flower. It is rather curious to 

 reflect that the spots on the flower are intended to make 

 it conspicuous, whereas the striped coat of its 

 namesake is calculated to make the animal 

 invisible in the jungle.
