THE BEBMUDA BUTTEBCTJP HIS is one of the finest â winter-flowering plant9 for pot culture that we have ever seen ; it is such a strong, luxuriant grower that one bulb will be sufficient for a 6 or 8 inch pot. Place in a dark, cool position for a few weeks to root thor- oughly, and remove to a sunny situation in the window or conservatory in a temperature of about 60Fahr.,and the great prof usion of bloom produced in uninterrupted abundance for weeks will astonish and delight you.
