IITUBEROSES ; the flowers resemble thoso 

 of the much-prized Ktephanotus, but 

 they arc sweeter. The cultivation of the 

 plant is simple, requiring merely to be 

 started in bottom heat, and this may be 

 done in succession, from January to May, 

 so that the plant may be had in bloom 

 from August to December. Three or more 

 roots are grown in a pot. lioot.-s not ready 

 to send out till middle of December.
