One of the few flowers that prolong Floras reign to theverge of winter. A plant of tropical , thoughentirely liardv south of the Ohio, and with good protectionmuch farther north. The safest plan is to lift tlie plants andkeep in box of soil in cellar over winter. A large specimenis very beautiful with its many long, narrow, re<airved leaves,which are crowned in midsummer and autumn with long,crowded spikes of flerv, tubular flowers, borne high abovethe foliage on stitT, r;imi-<xl-like stalks. At a little distancethe close heads of flaming orange and red flowci-s are verystriking, and have earned the plant its common name ofRed-Hot Pok<T. We have seen them bloom well intoNovember and l)ecember. It always blooms until the groundfreezes up. Frost does not kill foliageor bloom. Indispensa-ble, and must be in every garden on account of its brilliancyand late blooming. 20c. each, 3 for 50c., 7 forSl
