cormous plants that are so much used as 
cut flowers. They are highly fragrant and

rich, sandy soil, and should be kept fairly 
moist after active growth has started.

corms should be lifted and stored in a 
cool, dry place, and replanted anytime 
after Sept. 15th. A long season of bloom 
may be had by planting at intervals of
