HANDLING LATE BULBS. 



What shall we do with Von Sion tulips 

 and Dutch hyacinths that were left over 

 and just now potted up in pans and 

 flats? Must they be at once placed out- 

 side or will under the bench answer, well 

 covered over and in a cool house, say 45 

 to 50 degrees at night "J Is it necessary 

 they should freeze, and about when and 

 with what treatment may they be brought 

 into blooBi? " C. il. B. 



These bulbs will be ready and anxious 

 to make roots directly if they are put 

 into pots or flats and given water. Be- 

 neath a bench, where it is never over 

 45 degrees, and covered with four or 

 five inches of soil or tanbark, or any ma- 

 terial that will keep the light away 



from them may do fairly well for them, 

 and in six or seven weeks they will be so 

 well rooted that when put on the bench 

 they will flower quite satisfactorily. It 

 will then be so late in the season, say 

 the middle of March, that they will 

 flower in a night temperature of 50 de- 

 grees and require nothing that we call 

 forcing, such as those flowering at this 

 date have required. If, however, you 

 have a frame where you could cover them 

 with a few inches of soil and then stable 

 litter, to keep the soil in the pots or 

 flats from freezing, I would much pre- 

 fer it than beneath a bench in the green- 

 house. Freezing is not at all essential. 

 Tulips and hyacinths freeze hard in the 

 beds when planted out for spring flower- 

 ing, but they have made roots in the fall 

 before freezing up and make more in

 ground and before the flowering time. 

 The more active the root growth is in the 

 spring, which late planting induces, the 

 more lasting and beautiful will your tulip 

 beds be in the month of May. W. S. 



In the advertisement of the Chicago 

 Carnation Co., Joliet, 111., last week the 

 price of cuttings of Gov, Wolcott was 

 given as $4 per 100 and $50 per 1000, 

 where it was obvious that $4 per 100 and 

 $30 per 1000 was intended. The price 

 is correctly quoted in this week 's issue.
