UrUS READY IN SEPTEMBER 



Noble bulbous plants from northern India. They thrive admirably in deep, rich, sandy loam with the 

 addition of well-decayed cow manure. They need plenty of water in the flowering period, but require good 

 drainage. When well established they should not be disturbed, as the roots are extremely brittle. The surface 

 soil above the roots should be kept clean by hand-weeding and enriched by occasional applications of old manure, 

 leaf-mold and a little sand well mixed. Autumn planting is desirable, and the crown should be covered with 

 a mound of ashes over winter, or with a box with a water-tight top and filled with dry leaves. Protect the stems 

 from frost when coming into flower in spring. , Each
