POPPY ANEMONES. 



(IVindflower.) 



Alstromeria. 



The varieties offered below are charming hardy spring 

 flowers, and are becoming better known and more popu- 

 lar as a garden flower. Both double and single are 

 equally desirable, and no garden should be without 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 winter. 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.
