For early forcing, single crowns of these should bo planted about twelve in 
a five-inch pot, with the buds well above the surface. Cover the crowns with 
a little moss or an inverted flower-pot and place them in a good heat of say 85 to 
90 degrees ; water frequently with tepid water, and if judiciously looked after 
they will bloom in four or five weeks from time of potting. Good single crowns 
are much the best for this purpose.

A very fine variety with remarkably large handsome bells on long sturdy 
stalks. It is not so early and does not force so well as the ordinary variety, but 
will bloom splendidly out of doors in a sheltered position. Quite hardy.

LARGE-FLOWERED CANNAS. 
These magnificent plants with their beautiful spikes of brilliantly coloured Gladiolus-like flowers and handsome foliage, have become highly popular 
for bedding out on lawns, &o., and for greenhouse and conservatory decoration. They are as easily grown as most bedding plants, and are grandly 
effective in groups or centres of beds. Break up the ground and manure as for Dahlias, and plant out in May as soon as danger from frost is over. 
They will soon start into growth and bloom, and if mulched with short well-rottod manure and well watered should the weather be dry, they will give 
a splendid show of beautiful flowers till killed by the frost in Autumn. In October or November they may be taken up, and after a short period of 
Vest, divided and potted, when they will again start into growth and bloom in the greenhouse ; or the roe's may bo kopt dormant till Spring, when 
they should bo divided and potted up for turning out again in May. If grown for their boautiful foliage alone they aro well worth growing, and with 
additional charm of their gorgeous spikes of beautiful flowers they cannot bo too highly recommended. 
We have a very fine collection of these, including the most brilliant and beautiful colours.

TUBEROSES. 
These deliciously fragrant and oxcoedingly useful flowers are much more easily grown than is generally supposed, and will well repay the little troublo 
that is necessary to have them in perfection. For early forcing pot singly into five or six-inch pots, as early in the season as the bulbs can be obtained, 
and plunge in a good moist heat, withholding water till the foliage makes its appearance, when water may be given abundantly till the flower-buds are 
formed, when they may bo removed to the greenhouse or conservatory and less water given. For Autumn blooming pot singly into five or six-inch 
pots in March or April, using a light rich compost, and plunge the pots about six inches above their rims in cocoa-nut fibre, coal ashes, or any light 
material, under the stage of a greenhouse or in a cool pit or frame ; wlion the foliage of these makes its appearance they should be removed and plunged 
under a south wall, removing them to the greenhouse or indoors as the flower buds are formed. Dry roots may also be planted in sheltered places in the 
open ground, from the middle of April to the latter part of May, and will produce beautiful flowers in Autumn if taken up and potted when coming into 
flower, and will furnish a supply of beautiful bloom in the greenhouse almost up to Christmas.
