THE SACRED, OR GOOD LUCK LILY OF CIIIXA AND JAPAN. 
Called by the Chinese, “ Jos Flower,” or “ Flower of the Gods,” and ” Water Fairy Flower.” 
I his is a species of Polyanthus Narcissus, annually imported from Northern China, and prized for the abun- 
dance of its flowers and marvellously rapid growth. The flowers are white, with yellow cup, and very fragrant. 
Each bulb usually produces several flower spikes, each bearing many flowers, and the Chinese call the best culti- 
vated and largest developed blooms, *' Grand Emperor." In China and Japan the bulbs are grown in the living 
100ms in fancy bowls filled simply with pebbles and water, and the natives compete with one another in growing 
the finest specimens for their New Year’s Festival, successful culture being regarded as an emblem of “ Good 
Luck. I he bulb in this country can be grown as successfully as in China, and it is most interesting to watch 
itsra^d grovvth, which is something like 20 inches in forty days, placed in a sunny window by day, and on a 
table near ihe fireplace by night, as frost destroys the flower buds. The natural atmosphere of a warm greenhouse 
suits the flower well. Fuller particulars of culture sent with the bulbs. Orders now hooked for immediate 
delivery on arrival.

SWEET-SCENTED JONQUILS. 
The Double and Single Jonquils are prized for their graceful sweet-scented flowers in or out of doors, 
hor ln-noor decoration three to six bulbs should be grown in a 4 or 5-inch pot, and cultivated the same as the 
Hyacinth in all respects, whether for early flowrring or succession, if planted out-doors and treated the same as 
hardy Daffodils, a long succession of these sweet-scented flowers for room decoration may be maintained.

TIIE TULIP. 
nZ r ^'"sl !e a ” d Doub,e Tulips were awarded First Prize International Mart. Exhibition, London, 1892 . 
The Tulip is extremely hardy, and of easy culture, flowering as freely in the shade as in the sunshine, and 
producing as fine flowers in a confined town garden, as in more favoured places. Double and single Tulips, 
when mixed together and planted in front of shrubs, maintain a longer display, than if either are planted 
separately. In gardens where the flower beds must be kept gay from the earliest dawn of Spring, plant between 
the lines of I ultps, Sctlla sibirtca, Chionodoxas, Snowdrops, or Crocuses ; these flower first, and when out of 
bloom the leaves torm a charming green groundwork for the blossoms of the Tulip.
