The blossoms average five or six inches in diame'er, and are gorgeously col- ored.

Sufficient nourishment can be found by the top and bottom roots to make the plant bloom well without starting it to grow too vigorously, and therefore to bloom less Then in the Fall the plant can be lifted withoxit injury and transplanted again and kept in a shady, conl place, until,fuliy recovered,it will,in a warm,sunny window or in a warm room, bloom constantly.
