LILY OF THE VALLEY.  Convattaria. 
Ready in November. 
OR open ground planting we offer large clumps, each containing many flowering crowns. These may be set from six inches to a foot apart 
and covered three inches. They succeed best in ground which is rather moist and partially shaded. 
For forcing the Pips are to be preferred, being grown under conditions tending to promote vigorous and early blooming. ‘Twelve to 
eighteen pips may be planted in a 6-inch pot, with all the fibrous roots carefully preserved, and keeping the crowns above the soil. Place them in 
a temperature of about 80 degrees, cover the crowns with loose moss, and keep them constantly moist with tepid water. They should flower 
in about five weeks.
