The Popular Watsonias.

The California Cultivator has an ar
ticle on these plants. We do not
think that they have been cultivated
to any great extent in this state We
grew a species with very light yellow
flowers for several years, it was en-
tlrely hardy. The flowers somewhat
resembled a Gladiolus but smaller
and more open Our friend Mr.. T.
l.. Mead, sent us small bulb of the
white species, but it failed to live.
1t seems strange that a bulb which is
SO promising as is represented in the
article from the Cultivator has not
come into more common USE
1t is doubtful if South Africa has
ever sent out stronger candidate for
public favor than the White Wat
sonia; certainly not in the long list
OF "Cape bulbs" Other species, rang
ing in color from rose-pink to scar
let, are sparingly grown, but the
White Watsonia CIV. O'Brieni) is
more in demand at present than any
other bulb.
The botanical difference between
Watsonia and gladiolus are very
slight, and it might we'll be termed
white species Of the latter; but, hor-
ticulturally, it is of greater value than
any gladiolus in the market.
One of the strong points lies in the
purity Of it's color; one dealer in Eng
land advertise it as "the whitest
flower on earth" Another point Of
excellence is its long period of bloom.
It is what florists call ''laster,' for
not only is it good keeper after be-
ing cut, but a bed which came into
bloom for Easter cutting is still COW
cred with blossoms, though nearing
the end. The flowers are often three
inches across and are more nearly
bell-shaped than the usual g1adio1us
From a good, strong bulb there will
often grow branched spike five or
Six feet high, containing nearly two
