TRITTO]!! A (Red-hut Poker, Flame Flower, or Torch Lily) 



Pfitzerii (27*6 Everblooming Flame Flower). The early free and continu- 

 ous blooming qualities of this variety has made it one of the great bedding 

 plants, and when we consider that there are few flowering plants which are 

 suitable for massing under our severe climatic conditions, it is little wonder 

 that such an elegant subject should become so popular. Succeeds in any or- 

 dinary garden soil, but responds quickly to liberal treatment; hardy if given 

 protection, but the most satisfactory method of wintering is to bury the roots 

 in sand in a cool cellar. In bloom from August to October, with spikes 3 to 

 4 feet high, and heads of bloom of a rich orange-scarlet, producing a grand 

 effect either planted singly in the border or in masses. (See cut. ) 30 c's.
