Its stately and graceful habit renders it a per- fect pot-plant for table or window decorations. It gets its popular name from the fact that it is so largely used for church decoration at Easter. It is easily grown and can be forced into flower in a remarkably short time. It is also well adapted to garden culture, but in this latitude the bulbs should have a good covering of ashes or litter to protect them over winter.
