POPPY ANEMONES (Windnower). 



The varieties offered below are charming hardy spring flowers, and 

 are becoming better known and more popular as a garden flower. Both 

 double and single are equally desirable, and no garden should be with- 

 out them. They are suitable for pot or border culture, and when 

 planted in masses are most effective. They succeed best in a light, 

 rich, well -drained loam. Plant in November, or as soon as the ground 

 can be worked in the Spring. If planted in the Autumn they should 

 be covered with leaves, straw or long manure on the approach of win- 

 ter. For pot culture, fill with any rich, porous compost, with good 

 drainage, planting 4 roots in a 5-inch pot; place in a cold frame, or 

 any moderately cool situation, giving very little water until the plants 

 appear; then remove to greenhouse or sitting-room window.

CALLA LILIES. 



White Calla {Richnrdia ^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 window plants. To aid 

 profuse blooming keep them dormant from the middle of 

 June until the last of August; repot in good, ricli soil, using 

 6 to 8-in. pot, give water, light and heat in abundance, and 

 the result will be most satisfactory.
