good garden soil, they flower with great certainty during 
summer and fall. The hardy sorts may remain in the

up after the foliage has ripened in the fall, and the bulbs 
stored away in a dry, cool place until planting time the 
next spring.

red flowers are produced before the leaves appear. It is

insects. The white flowers are borne in clusters and, while insignificant they emit 
a most delightful cinnamon-like perfume. The roots are thoroughly hardy, remain 
in the ground for years, increasing in size and vigor, but the vine dies down every 
winter, shooting up with great rapidity in the spring. (See cut.) Price extra
