AMARYLLIS (HIPPEASTRUMS). 
This deservedly popular family cannot be too highly recommended. The ease with which they 
are cultivated and the gorgeously beautiful flowers they produce at almost any season, make them 
most desirable in any coUeotion. By gradually drying tlio bulbs they can be put to rest at any time 
during the year, an<i then when required, if starteii in a gentle heat, they quickly develop their large 
Lily-like blossoms, which are of various colours, generally embracing crimson, white and red, scarlet, 
rose-flaked, striped white aud crimson, with various shades of colours.
