IMPERIAL GLOXINIAS 



THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FLOWER THAT BLOOMS. 



^ K W IMPERIAL GLOXINIAS— GLOXINIAS ure certainly among the handsomest of |our summer flowering plants, presenting, as they do, such 

 u variation of rich and exquisite coloring, equal to the orchid in novelty and beauty. Tho flowers are of handsome shape and large size, and a great 

 vuriety 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 burns the foliage when wet, causing brown 

 spots to appenr. Pjant bulbs in a mixture of light lonm, manure find sand, equal parts, giving but little water until signs of life appear. You will have a 

 succession of bloom from June to September, and words cannot describe the rare beauty of theso flowers to one who has never seen them. When done 

 blooming, dry gradually, and keep in pots over winter in a warm place.
