EUCHARIS AMAZONICA 
Freesia 
(See Illustration on Page 39.) 
Early Spring blooming South African 
cormous plants that are so much used as 
cut flowers. They are highly fragrant and 
easily grown. Suitable for pot culture, 
forcing under glass, and planting in the 
open in warm sections. They do best in 
rich, sandy soil, and should be kept fairly 
moist after active growth has _ started. 
When the foliage has turned yellow the 
corms should be lifted and stored in a cool, 
dry place and replanted any time after 
September 15th. A long season of bloom 
may be had by planting at intervals of 
three weeks. In California and the South 
they may be left in the ground for a num- 
ber of years. Delivery September to Janu- 
ary.
