Tuberose

Polyanthes tuberosa. Dr. Lindley says that, -

"To flower the tuberose in the open air the bulbs should be started in a moderately warm frame, and planted out towards the end of May, in a sunny sheltered border. The bottom of the border should consist principally of well decomposed manure, and should be covered, to the depth of six inches, with light sandy loam, in which the bulbs should be planted. Success, in this case, will depend greatly upon the season, and upon having good bulbs, which should be planted just as they are received. When grown in pots the same soil should be used, the plants should be kept near the glass, and they should receive a liberal supply of water when growing." - Gard. Chron.
