odor somewhat resembling Sanctity, is entirely concealed by the leaves, which begin to turn as soon as the plant is full-grown.

   When the new leaves have completely turned over, the flower will be seen in all its snowy beauty. This, however, rarely happens, as most of the plants die long before the turning process is accomplished.

   Another winter-blooming flower is the Valentine Plant (

    Lovelornia Desperatia

   ), one of the

    Epistolaria

   Family. This should be set out towards the end of the month, as it flowers in the middle of February.

    Recent investigations have shown that this destructive Blight, of which the Turnleaf is the victim, is caused by a deadly germ known as

     Jus Twunsmoria

    .

   Shy. Blooms in out-of-the-way corners and on dressing-tables.

   An uncertain plant. Don't try to raise them unless you have had experience.
