that can be shipped long distances and easily produced from seed, 
if planted in August to November. Charming in the daytime or 
It was introduced in Europe in 1928 and the Europeans went wild 
over it. The same thing will happen here and growers will do 
well and make NO mistake if they grow Leucocoryne without delay. 
The demand for flowering bulbs is sure to come, the thing is, to 
have the bulbs when the demand does come. CULTURE—Treat 
same as you do Freesias. Bulbs planted in the Fall bloom in Feb¬ 
ruary and on. It takes 2 to 3 years to produce flowering size bulbs 
from seed. The seed germinates readily and bulbs are produced 
without any trouble. The seed is rather expensive, but in two or 
three years you will have your own seed producing plants, will keep 
on sowing and produciing bulbs which you will sell as fast as 
roduced. Therefore do not hesitate. Go ahead full blast. You have 
ere a chance to make a few extra dollars that will come in handy
