The flowers are bell- shaped, and are borne in a whorl at the top of the plant, which grows from 3 to 4 feet high. The Crown Imperial will grow well in any good garden soil, and if it can be said to have preferences, it is for a deep loam. At the time of planting the soil should be deeply trenched and well manured. They should be planted 2 or 3 in a clump, 6 inches deep, and then left alone for years. When established they flower abundantly, and the stems should not be cut off, but allowed to decay naturally. To cut them away is to rob the plant of some of its strength. It has also been noticed that the bulbs flower better after a hot summer, the supposition being that they become well ripened after a hot, dry season. A slight covering during the winter will be beneficial. (See cut.) Superfine Mixed. Including red, yel- low and shades of ornnge. 10 cts. each; $ per doz.
