We acquired the late Rev. John Nelsons stock of Lachenalias, and have no hesitation in 
saying the variety which is associated with his name surpass in beauty and free- flowering all other 
species and varieties, and has done much to popularize this very interesting class of plants. 
Mr. Nelson crossed A urea and Luteola, producing the exceedingly beautiful variety L. Nelsoni, 
which has the rich yellow colour of A urea 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, siveet leaf soil, and sand, placed in a green- 
house or frame, and never allowed to suffer for want of water. See Plate in “ The Garden ,” 1880 .
