these are so freely produced, thru a long period, that “beautiful every day” would be

Culture. While their beauty is their greatest recommendation, their easy culture and 
hardiness add to their desirability. I have known abandoned plants here, where we have 
arid, hot summers, to persist for years. They grow well in full sun. Slight shade is better. 
If given constant moisture about their roots, preserving this and coolness of the earth with 
a good mulch, the plants are ideally situated and respond with generosity. They are hardy, 
even in severe winters in the north. They are fibrous rooted, not bulbs, and must be 
planted at once when received. Altho they can be moved any time, it is better to ship 
from late fall to early spring. 
They are an almost perfect border or landscape plant, never have to be dug and 
replanted. All that you must do for them is keep the weeds down and water. A heavy 
leafy mulch helps every way.
