The colors run through all the shades of red, pink, yellow, blush and pure 
white. These beautiful bulbs from the Cape Colony (South Africa) are far 
too little known; they should be planted in late autumn and in cold dis- 
tricts must be covered with a thick layer of straw or leaves. Splendid 
for southern states. Few bulbs are so lovely and graceful and those who 
live where the climate is mild should plant them freely.

be grown in flats or in pots. Do well out-of-doors in milder 
climates and are showy in beds, borders, and rock gardens. 
They have from one to two dozen generally pendulous, 
firecracker-like flowers, three-quarters to one_ inch in 
length on stems six to nine inches and bloom from late 
November to February, depending on the time of planting 
and the temperature in which they are grown. j

from year to year.
