FREESIA. 
The Freesia is of easy culture, ancl the spikes of white 
incl primrose coloured flowers are produced in great freedom. 
As soon as obtained, place six bulbs in a 4<S-si/ed pot filled 
with a compost consisting of about three parts light sandy 
loam and one of sweet leaf-mould, with a few small crocks 
and a handful of half-rotted leaves in the bottom of each pot 
for drainage. The pots should then be stood on coal ashes 
in a dry situation. As soon as the plants have made half an 
inch of growth they should be removed to a position near the 
glass in a cool frame, and shaded heavily at first. Afterwards 
gradually inure them to light and a little air. To assist the 
consequent production of stout flower spikes, waterings of 
tepid diluted liquid manure should be given. 
Purity. — The true, pure white variety. This new and 
improved large variety is a decided improvement on all 
other varieties yet produced ; is a much stronger grower, 
producing a larger, stronger, and bolder flower in con- 
junction with being very free flowering ; is an excellent 
forcing variety, and used extensively for this purpose.
