^JEUCHARIS. Nothing can exceed in 
beauty the deliciously fragrant snow- 
white blossoms of the Eucharis Amazo- 
nica. At tbo International Horticultural 
Botanical Flower Show of 1866 no class 
of plants elicited so much admiration as 
two large pots of this beautiful flower, 
the plants being covered with hundreds 
of blossoms. In bouquets the flower is 
by many more highly prized than the 
white Camellia, and ladies arc especially 
fond of it for their hair and their dresses. 
Its culture is simple, where there is a 
stove or warm greenhouse; and, like 
the family of which it is a member 
(Amaryllidese), by a little arrangement 
in starting the bulbs, it may be had in 
flower the year round.
