Brodiaea 
These are showy, hardy, bulbous-rooted plants, natives 
of California. They bear clusters of long, tubular¬ 
shaped flowers of a bluish-purple shade. A light, loose, 
well-drained, sandy or loamy soil best meets their needs, 
and an excess of moisture or very rich soils are to be 
avoided. A protection of leaves should be given in win¬ 
ter. They do well as pot plants. Height about one foot.

(Richardia). (Lily of the Nile) 
A rather warm temperature is desirable for Callas. 
Use very rich soil, and give an abundance of water when 
growing. They may be kept growing continually, or 
given a season of rest, as desired. The yellow variety 
seems to do best when grown without a resting period.

These beautiful spring flowers are equally adapted for 
garden and pot culture. For garden culture plant the 
bulbs in any good, rich garden soil, about four inches 
apart, in clumps or masses, and before the ground freeze^ ! 
cover thoroughly with leaves and other litter as a winter 
protection. For pot culture use six-inch pots, which will 
hold four to six bulbs. Cover one inch deep and keep 
moderately cool. Give but little water until growth be¬ 
gins. Florists now use these by the thousands for win¬ 
ter forcing.
