GLOXINIA CULTURE. For a succession of bloom 
start bulbs every two weeks from January thru 
April. Pot with crown protruding, using equal 
parts of rich fibrous loam, sand, and leaf mold. 
A warm temperature (70 degrees) is required or 
bulbs will rot. Insure good drainage by placing 
gravel in bottom of the pot. Water sparingly 
until growth starts, then plenty of water should 
be given and care taken not to wet the leaves. An 
eastern exposure, well sheltered from strong wind 
and sun suits them. After blooming, withhold 
water to ripen the tubers, then store in sand for 
winter at 45 degrees.
