NELUMBIUM. (Lotus.) The fact that the beautiful 
Lotus is quite hardy in our climate is becoming more 
appreciated and we shall doubtless soon see many un- 
sightly muddy pools transformed by their magnificent 
foliage and gorgeous blooms. Their starchy rhizomes 
will find ready purchasers among our Chinese residents 
who now import them from China for eating. They 
are easily raised from seeds which should be sown 
early in the spring in sandy loam, covered half an inch 
and the pots submerged in water at a temperature of 
70 degrees which should be maintained.
