Tigridia pavonia —Mexican Shell Flower or

Strange that such a gorgeous and exotic

from Mexico and was brought to Europe in 
the 17th century. It is of the same easy 
culture as its cousin, the gladiolus. The 
bulbs are edible. While each individual 
blossom lasts only for a day. it blooms so 
diligently that it has a long blooming 
period. It comes in pink, orange, or cream.

round the bright yellow anthers, the whole 
contained in a rich golden cup 4 in. across.

of frost. It will supply you with glorious 
cut flowers all summer. New. 50c.
