IXIAS, SPARAXIS, TRITONIAS, AND BABIANAS. 
UNDER. GLASS THEY FLOWER IN MARCH AND APRIL, OUT OF DOORS IN MAY AND JUNE. 
These are amongst the mast graceful, attractive, and beautiful of Cape flowering bulbs. They differ con- 
siderably in style and habit of growth, but, being closely allied, they require the same cultural treatment. 
For In-Doors. Plant in October or November five or six bulbs, in a five-inch pot, using a compost 
of turfy-loam, peat, or leaf mould mixed with clean sand. Make the soil moderately firm about the bulbs, 
then place them in a cold pit or frame, plunging the pots in ashes or cocoa-fibre, and withhold water till 
the plants appear, then give sparingly at first. The lights should not be kept on except during wet or 
frosty weather. 
For Out of Doors. Choose a light loamy soil with a due south aspect (the hotter the situation the 
better), and if possible backed by a wall or greenhouse. Plant the bulbs six inches deep and four inches 
apart, surrounding them with an inch of sand. Two or three inches of dry leaves laid on the surface will 
be sufficient winter protection. 
There are but few situations in this country where these plants succeed well entirely out of doors. 
No one need, however, be deprived of a bed of these superb flowers, if they will only plant three bulbs in 
a four-inch pot ; treat as recommended for in-door culture ; then in April or May remove them from the 
frame, and plunge the pots where intended to bloom.
