vigorous in habit than the common 

 calla. They flower even in 3-inch pots 

 from quite small bulbs. The flowers 

 are much purer white and are pro- 

 duced two or three times as abundantly 



as on the common calla. I have not 

 tried this plant in beds or benches, but 

 in pots it certainly blooms amazingly 

 if well fed with liquid manure and 

 top-dressings of bone. For a retailer 



the Godfrey calla is superior to all 

 others on the market. I have not kept 

 any record of the number of blooms 

 per bulb, but it far outclasses other 

 sorts. ~ C. W.
