grown. We do not know of any other house 
plant that responds so quickly. Velvety flow-

fect between the soft handsome leaves. Bulbs 
can be planted from early February to late 
May, to make a succession of flowers.

ACIDANTHERA | 
MURIELAE 
(Sweet Scented Gladiolus) 
A vigorously growing Gladiolus-like 
bulb which produces highly scented 
flowers in late summer. The fragrance 
is delightfully fresh and soft, yet insist- 
ent. A few spikes in a vase will make 
themselves pleasantly known through- 
out the living room. Flowers are white 
with brilliant and clear purple marking 
in centers, length of stem about 2 to 2% 
feet. In mild climates the bulbs may be 
left in the ground where they will soon 
form good sized clumps. In colder sec- 
tions, dig and store as Gladiolus bulbs.
