THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLOWER THAT BLOOMS. 



NEW IMPERIAL GLOXINIAS — GLOXINIAS are certainly among the handsomest of our summer (lowering plants, presenting as they do, 

 such a variation of rich and exquisite coloring, equal to the orchid in novelty aud beauty. The flowers are of handsome shape and large 

 size, and a great variety of colors that are velvety in the depth and richness of shading. The flowers often measure 3 inches In length and 

 2 In width, and are upright and pendulous. They succeed well with ordinary care, and should be grown in a moderately shady place, as 

 the sun bums the foliage when wet, causing brown spots to appear. Plant bulbs in a mixture of light loam, manure and sand, equal parts, 

 giving bnt little water until signs of life appear. Yon will have a succession of bloom from June to September, and words cannot de- 

 scribe the rare beauty of these flowers to one who has never seen them. When done blooming, dry gradually, and keep in pots over winter 

 In a warm place.
