LILY 7 OF THE VALLEY. 



(Ready in November.) 



One of the most charming of spring-flowering plants, and can readily be flowered in the 

 house. The pips or crowns are received from Germany during November, and should be 

 planted soon after their receipt. The simplest method tor indoor culture is to place a bundle 

 of 25 pips in a 7 or 8 inch pot, filling it up with sand, moss or light soil, allowing the points 

 of the pips to be about an inch above the surface. They should then be placed out ol d< ors 

 and brought indoors as wanted, and put in a shaded place in a temperature of about 70 de- 

 grees, and when the spikes are I? or 4 inches high they may be brought to where they are to 

 perfect their flowers. By having a number of pot- and bringing in at intervals, a continuous 

 display can be had throughout the winter and spring months. We recommend clumps as 

 most suitable for outdoor planting.
