The Wonder Plant 
(South African Chincherinchee). This b' 
wonder plant from Africa is distinguished ;» 
for its longevity. The blooms when cut 
will keep from four to six weeks and if left 
to remain on the bulb will bloom through 
for three months. For growing indoors, 
only, in temperature of 55 degrees. Makes 
an ideal vase decoration when combined 
with Statice. 
Gardeners who sceptically gave this 
"Wonder Plant" a trial, were very much en¬ 
thused and amazed at the results. It has 
measured up to all that has been claimed 
for it.
