ANEIPIONES. 
These charming hardy spring flowers are becoming better known and more pop- 
ular 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 massses are most effective. They succeed best in a light, rich, 
well-drained loam. Plant in October or 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 1ich, porous compost, with good drainage, planting 
4 roots in a 6-inch pot; place in a cold frame, or any moderately cool situa- 
tion, giving very little water until the plants appear, then remove to the 
greenhouse or sitting-room window.
