As soon as all danger of frost is past in the spring the plants or bulbs can be set out in the open ground. In the fall after the growth is finished, take up the bulbs and keep them in a warm, dry place, either in sand or charcoal, and in the spring they can again be set out. Our collection comprises over fifty of the best and most distinct varieties, including over twenty- five of the new Brazilian sorts. A description of the wonderful combination of colors and beautiful blending of shades in these plants is im- possible. In some, the leaves are bright red with darker veins; some have a delicate rose-colored center, shading off to white; others are pure white and so transparent that writing held beneath the leaf may be readily deciphered through it. Many varieties are as brightly colored and as delicately beautiful as flowers. A bed of these grand plants will not disappoint you.
