The Named Hybrid Ixias are so beautiful and rich in tints that no lover of flowers should be without them. 

 They are equally adapted for pots or the open ground, exceedingly free flowering, and invaluable for cutting. 

 If planted out, they require rather more covering during winter than hyacinths. In pots their culture is the same 

 as that usually recommended for other bulbs. By reason of their curious forms and strange coloring, the Ixias 

 attract much attention. Each Doz. 100

Very pretty, spring-flowering, greenhouse bulbous plants 

 of elegant habit and with brightly colored flowers. They 

 should be grown in pots, four to six bulbs in a 5-inch pot, in a compost of two parts loam, two parts leaf-mold and 

 one part each of peat, sand and well-rotted cow manure. Apply but little water until growth is somewhat advanced, 

 but give more freely as the foliage develops; give them plenty of light and air and keep near the glass to insure 

 sturdy growth. Lachenalias are also excellent subjects for hanging baskets. Each Doz.
