Lachenalia 
New Cape bulb known in England as Cane cowslip. Large flowered forms have 
been hybridized and grown very successfully in England as pot plants, either in 
loam or fibre. Very useful for florist's work as they can be grown in flats 
and shifted into pots or baskets when in full bloom. They have one to two 
dozen pendulous, firecracker-like flowers about one inch in length and bloom 
from late November to February, denending on the time of planting and the temoer- 
ature at which the plants are forced. The small flowered forms have not been 
hybridized and are spring blooming. The flowers are much smaller than the 
large flowered form. The shape and habit resemble a Muscari to some extent ex¬ 
cept that they are not spaced so closely on the stem and the stamens and style 
extend beyond the mouth of the flower. The stems are about 15 inches tall. 
Useful as cut flowers.
