TRITOjUA (Ked-hot Poker, Flame Flower, or Torch Lily). 



The early, free ;md coiUinuous blooming qualities of the newer varieties liave made Tritomas 

 one of the great bedding plants, and when we consider that there are few plants which arc suit- 

 able for massing under our severe climatic conditions, it is little wonder that such excellent sub- 

 jects should become so popular. 



All the varieties offered are worthy of cultivation ; they are hardy if given protection, but the 

 most satisfactory method of wintering is to bury the roots in sand in a cool cellar.
