rest at any time during the year, and then, 
when required, if started 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 and crimson, with various shades 
of colours.
