mould mixed with a little sand, and covered about 

 half an inch deep, placing them where they receive 

 the morning sun till the beginning of September, 

 when they should be removed to a warmer expo- 

 sure ; and it is desirable to house them during the 

 winter months, but at the same time to place them 

 in situations where they have the advantage of 

 light and air. This attention, of placing them in 

 the morning sun during the summer and the full 

 day's heat in the autumn, must be yearly attended 

 to. When they are of a size to transplant, each 

 bulb should have a small pot, in preference to 

 placing several in one pot ; and as the bulb in- 

 creases in size, so should the size of the pot be 

 larger at every planting.
