 with proper care will give a beautiful display early in the 

 summer. For growing in pots or boxes in the house, plant in

 the leaves start, but do not let the soil become sour or soggy 

 from over watering. If it is desired to have a bed outdoors, 

 select a shady, moist situation, making the bed rich with tho- 

 roughly rotted manure and leaf mold, if obtainable. Plant as
