The Famous Chinese 

 Sacred Lily 



One of the most popular of the Winter-flower- 

 ing bulbs ; ease of culture, certainty of bloom 

 and rare beauty ;of all combine to make this 

 lovely gem from the Flowery Kingdom a most 

 interesting and satisfactory Winter flower. It 

 will thrive in soil, but the favorite method of 

 culture is growing in water and gravel, where it 

 can be depended upon to flower within 20 to 30 

 days after planting. Select a vessel of sufficient 

 size, place two or three bulbs in it, fill the inter- 

 space with coarse sand or gravel until the bulb is 

 firmly held in position, and then add water until 

 quite covered. Place in a moderately cool situa- 

 tion by the window, replenish the water from 

 time to time as it evaporates or becomes foul. It 

 is particularly adapted to conditions not favorable 

 to the growth of most other plants. In four or 

 five weeks it will produce masses of deliciously 

 scented flowers.
