The Famous Chinese 

 Sacred Lily 



This novel and charming flower is used 

 by the Chinese in celebrating their New 

 Year's or Good Luck Feast. The flowers 

 are looked upon as sacred, as an offering 

 to their gods. The unique manner of grow- 

 ing the bulbs and the loveliness of the 

 blossom attracted instant attention in this 

 country and during the last few years it 

 has become the most popular of the Win- 

 ter flowering bulbs; ease of culture, cer- 

 tainty of bloom and rare beauty all com- 

 bine to make this lovely gem from the 

 Flowery Kingdom a most interestmg and 

 satisfactory Winter flower. It will thri\e 

 in soil, but the favorite method of culture 

 is growing in water and gravel, where it 

 can be depended upon to flower within 

 20 to 30 days after planting. Select a 

 vessel of sufficient size, place two or three 

 bulbs in it, fill the interspace with coarse 

 sand or gravel until the bulb is firmly held 

 in position, and then add water until quite 

 covered. Place in a moderately cool situa- 

 tion by the window; replenish the water 

 from time to time as it evaporates or be- 

 comes foul. It is particularly adapted to 

 conditions not favorable to the growth of 

 most other plants. In four or five weeks 

 it will produce masses of deliciously scent- 

 ed flowers.
