FUNKIA OR THE HARDY PLANTAIN LILY. 
These handsome hardy herbaceous plants devclope their ornamental foliage early in Spring, and in 
Summer and Autumn throw up a profusion of fine Lily-like flower spikes. The leaves range in size from the 
miniature to the gigantic, and from pale green to a deep glaucous-grecn. All are grand plants for edgings, and 
the large-leaved sorts adapted especially to naturalize in wild gardens, also to grow as distinctive objects on the 
grass of parks, etc., as exemplified by their extensive use in Hyde Park. For pot-culture under glass we 
especially recommend, for its neat snow-white flowers, Ovata spathulata speciosa, a small-leaved plant, and for 
its large spike of snow-white flowers, Subcordata grandiflora, a handsome large-leaved variety ; also those with 
variegated foliage. Out of doors, in shady and somewhat moist situations, the Plantain Lily is most decorative ; 
there the foliage is developed to its full size.
