It does well planted in the ground in May, and when in bud can be potted and removed for conservatory or window decoration, or it can be grown con- tinuously in pots or tubs as it im- proves with age. Requires repotting but seldom and can be left to grow, blossom and increase forseveral years, as well-established plants when in flower are simply magnificent. We know of no plant that will give more continued delight than this. It is one of the few really good window plants.
