No description can do adequate justice to this beautiful plant. The flowers are two inches lone: and about the same in width, shaped like miniature Gladioli, and borne in clusters of six to ten on depressed hori- zontal scapes. The body of the flower is pure white, with lower segments spotted lemon-yellow. The perfume is delicious, being a mixture of Mignonette, Violet, and Jasmine, and one plant is sufficient to per- fume a large room, without the overbearing perfume of Hyacinths and Tuberoses. The plant has tooth shaped bulbs and flat- spreading leaves. Its cultivation is of the simplest character, requiring only to be potted early in September or October, to be watered sparingly at first, then placed in a sunny window and watered more as growth progresses.
