CRINUMS. 



Splendid large-flowering bulbs, closely allied to the 

 Amaryllis. The most suitable soil is a compost of turfy- 

 loam, cow manure and some sand. They should be 

 grown in large pots or in tubs, about three-fourths of 

 the bulb being out of the soil. In late fall they should 

 be removed to a coolhouse and allowed to rest till new- 

 leaves begin to appear in February. The bulbs should 

 receive a top-dressing each y-ear when starting, and 

 manure water during the growing season. The}' may 

 be placed outside when warm weather begins and will 

 flower all through the summer, making splendid lawn 

 or veranda plants.
