ly yellow flowers. The Jonquils flower well in the house. 
The Narcissus are mostly hardy bulb¬ 
ous roots. Many of them are well known, 
including the Dofiodil and Sweet Scented 
Jonquil. The Polyanthus Narcissus is 
the most desirable of all, but not quite 
hardy and requires to be planted at least 
five inches deep and well protected. For 
winter flowering nothing surpasses it. 
The blossoms are produced in trusses of 
from ten to twenty flowers. There are 
many varieties of this flower; some have 
entirely white flowers, others white with 
straw-colored cup, and others with eutire-

ANEMONE. 
Very little attention has been paid 
in this section of the country, to 
the cultivation of this beautiful 
A “ flower, from the fact that it will not 
endure our winters unless planted 
in a frame or otherwise protected. 
With this protection and some lit¬ 
tle attention, it will abunbantly re¬ 
pay all the labor that may be be¬ 
stowed upon it. The flowers are 
both single and double and both de- 
single anemone sirable. When the foliage begins 
to turn brown, the roots should be taken up and dried 
in the shade. If properly dried and kept from moisture 
they may be kept out of ground two or three years with¬ 
out injury.

COLCHICUM. 
The Colchicum or Au¬ 
tumn Crocus, is a curi¬ 
ous plant. The leaves 
grow all winter and 
' blossoms in October.- 
Flowers are purple, li¬ 
lac or pale blue. Each 
bulb will produce a fine 
cluster of flowers, and 
seems determined to 
flower under any cir¬ 
cumstances,and if taken 
out of the ground and 
placed on a shelf to dry, the flowers will appear just the 
.5 cents each, 50 cents per doz. 
same as though growing in the ground. The bulbs of¬ 
ten reach us in full flower. Perfectly hardy. I have 
never known of one being winter killed. 
Colchicum Autumnale,. 10 
Most of the varie¬ 
ties of the Oxalis 
have very small 
bulbs, and in order 
to have a rich dis¬ 
play at once, sever¬ 
al bulbs should be 
planted together.— 
They grow rapidly, 
flower profusely 
and for hanging 
baskets they h$ive 
no superior. The 
Oxalis die down 
once a year—after 
they are done flow¬ 
ering; as soon as the leaves begin to fade allow the 
earth to become thoroughly dry, then knock the bulbs 
out of the pot and immediately repot them in fresh soil 
and keep in a dry place; about the first of September 
they will start up again, they should now be watered 
and brought to the light, and in a few weeks they will 
be attractive plants.
