This isa very handsome * uni of p 
novel introduction from the Cape. It flowers 
freely during the summer months. 
somewhat tender, it should be constantly 
kept in a warm green-house, observing to be 
rather sparing of water in the winter. It is 
not propagated so readily as many of the 
species, but will increase by dividing the roots 
in the spring. Sandy loam, mixed with a 
portion of peat, forms a proper soil for it. 
Being of very moderate growth, it may be 
kept in a small-sized pot.
