 swiftness after potting. For autumn and winter flowering they are extremely beauti-

 across ; colors very brilliant, and in the sunlight glisten as if sprinkled with gold dust

Bermuda "Buttercup" An unrivaled winter-flowering pot plant, of the easiest 

 culture. It is such a strong, luxuriant grower that one bulb will be sufficient for a G 

 or 8-inch pot, and the great profusion of bloom produced in uninterrupted abundance 

 for weeks is astonishing and delightful ; flowers purest yellow 



ORNITHOGALUM. arabicum, star of bethlehem. 



A beautiful variety, throwing up a tall spike bearing numerous large, milk-white, 

 star-shaped flowers, with a black centre, and having a distinct aromatic perfume 

 They are decidedly pretty and interesting when grown in the garden — but are more 

 largely grown for greenhouse and window decoration, being of the easiest culture.
