TIGRIDIA (Mexican Tiger or Iris Lily). 
TIGKIDIA PAVONIA GBANDIPLOSA. 
Natives of Mexico, producing flowers of exquisite beauty and singularly 
enrious shape, the colour of each variety is gorgeous and finely contrasted ; 
they bloom from July to October. Before the frost take np the bulbs, and 
keep in a dry place until the time of planting in March or April. The 
following are the most distinct and beautiful varieties; — 
Pavonia Grandiflora Alba— Large ivory-white flowers, spotted 
with maroon and rosj lake in the centre, most beautiful when the bloom 
unfolds itself in the morning; recommended as a distinct and useful variety. 
2s. Gri. per doz. 
Pavonia Grandiflora — Is most beautiful when the bloom unfolds 
itself in the morning ; from June until the frost seta in no flower so gorgeous 
or pretty was ever seen, but as the sun sets the flower ceases to exist, and 
the quantity produced is enormous. Beyond planting in the ordinary way 
of a Tulip, nothing more is required. 2s. per doz. 
TUBEKOSE. 
African Tuberose (Double)— Direct from the Cape ; can highly 
recommend them. 2s. (irf. per doz. ; 17s. Orf. per 100. 
All who have our Tubers at once exclaim, “ I have had nothing like 
them before.” The fact is we are large growers, and the secret is they are 
grown especially for us in a spot most congenial, which makes them 
unequalled in England. 
CULTURAL DIRECTIONS. — Pot into OO’s, place in 66“ temperature 
bottom heat, keep moist until roots have made a growth, then increase the 
temperature to 80“. When full of roots re-pot into 6-inch pots, and place 
near the glass ; after bloom spike appears, place them in a cooler house, 
and train up under the glass. They must be well syringed, and amply 
supplied with liquid manure. 
For other choice bulbous plants — viz., Begonias, Achimenes, Cyclamen, 
Gloxinias, and Tropmolvms — see our Floral Guide and Bulb Catalogues,
