in say ing the three varieties with which Mr. Nelson's name is associated surpass in beauty a nd free- 
flowering all other species and varieties, and have done much to popularizhig this very interesting 
class of plants. Mr. Nelson crossed A urea and Lufeolia which produced the exceedingly beautif ul 
variety L. Nelsoni, which has the rich yellow colour of Aurea and the floriferous character of 
Luteola, and to which the Floral Committee of the Royal Horticultural Society awarded a First Class 
Certificate , 1881. The Lachenalias should be potted early in a compost of loam, sweet leaf soil, and 
sand, placed in a greenhouse or frame, and never allowed to suffer for want of water. See Plate
