The named Hybrid Ixias are so beautiful and rich 

 i'l tints that no lover of flowers should be without 

 them. They are oqimlly nilnjited for pots or the open 

 ground, exceedingly f io(>-lloworing. and invaluable for 

 cutting. If planted out, they require rather more cov- 

 ering during winter than hyacinths. In pots their 

 ' ulture is the same as that usually recommended for 

 Mthor bulbs. By reason of their curious forms and 

 strange coloring, the Ixias attract much attention.
