The seeds are , must be sown ciul- fuUy under in a warm, moist tempera- ture. Transplant th > seedlings into small pots when they show the second leaf. If well-grown during summer, allowed to rest in autumn, given little water in winter, and started into rapid growth the second spring, they should bloom well that season. As the bulbs grow la r g e r and stronger they of course bloom more freely. This plant can be grown from cuttings, but the seedlings are much more satisfactory. Pkt. 3249 Gloxini
