White Calla {Bichardia ^thiopica), The White Calla, 

 or Lily of the Nile, is a well-known plant of easy culture, and 

 in winter is one of our best window plants. To aid profuse 

 blooming keep them dormant from the middle of June until 

 the last of August; repot in good, rich soil, using 6 to 8-inch 

 pot; give water, light and heat in abundance, and the result 

 will be most satisfactory.
