These plants are perfectly hardy and the 
bulbs may be planted either in the Autumn or 
early in the Spring. They will grow in any rea¬ 
sonably good garden soil and they should be 
set about 4 inches deep. 
The leaves appear quite early in the Spring 
and grow until July, when they ripen and die to 
the ground. Then in August, the flower buds 
spring up and grow rapidly to a height of 2 or 
3 feet. These buds soon open into clusters of 
from 8 to 12 large lily-like flowers of a rosy 
lilac color. They are very handsome and always 
excite admiration.
