CALLA LILIES. 



White Calla ( Richardia ^thiopica). The White Calla, or Lily of the Nile, 

 is a well-known plant of easy culture, and in winter is one of our best win- 

 dow plants. To aid profuse blooming keep them dormant from the middle of 

 June until the last of August; repot in good, rich soil, using 6 to 8-inch pot, 

 give water, light and heat in abundance, and the result will be most satis- 

 factory.
