On the Cultivation of Chlidanthus fragrans. 221 



The border in which these plants have grown is particularly 

 calculated for the culture of tender bulbs. Brunsvigia Josephina? 

 flowered there last autumn, with a stem nearly as large as my wrist, 

 and a head of thirty-six flowers, seeding abundantly. Ismene 

 calathina, Vallota purpurea, and many others flower annually, 

 Haemanthus toxicarius flourishes there, but has not blossomed. 



Primley Hill, near Newton Abbot, Devonshire. 

 August 1, 1837.
