are filled with roots again, any more 

 than it is permissible to subject poorly 

 rooted imported bulbs to such treat- 

 ment. This point should be kept in 

 mind. The grower should realize that 

 he can not subjfect these vegetatively 

 potted plants to heat at the same stage 

 of top development as dormantly potted 

 bulbs. He should remember that these 

 seedlings, which are all the way from 

 large rosettes to plants in full bud and 

 are perfectly "fit" in appearance, may 

 have a great paucity of roots until new 

 ones have had a chance to develop. 



It will probably be much better not 

 to attempt to set a time limit on the 

 period required for the lily plants to 

 reroot at a temperature of 40 to 50 

 degrees at night. It will be much safer 

 for the grower to depend upon the con- 

 dition of the root system, which is most 

 accurately gauged by an examination 

 of the plant knocked out of the pot. 

 The same conditions should govern the 

 application of heat here as with im- 

 ported stocks, with which the grower is 

 familiar. 



Wintering Seedlings Outdoors. 



The previous discussion is based on 

 the assumption that the lily seedlings 

 are to be brought into the greenhouse 

 for their first flowering, or in the case 

 of the early ones for their second flow- 

 ering, upon the advent of cold weather 

 in late autumn. If the intention, on the 

 other hand, is to carry them outdoors, 

 it will be realized that the plants are at 

 two decided disadvantages with refer- 

 ence to the approaching cold weather. 



In the first place, all plants that have 

 not flowered are going into the winter 

 in full vegetative vigor and, in the sec- 

 ond place, they are shallowly set on 

 clean-tilled ground. Under such con- 

 ditions in the climate of Washington, 

 D. C, they may not winter successfully. 



A heavy mulch of coarse material, 

 such as cornstalks, might protect the 

 bull)s sufficiently, but it is believed to 

 be much the better method of treatment 

 to dig and reset them at the proper level 

 before the ground freezes in the fall. 

 The digging can be done either before 

 or after the tops are cut by freezing 

 weather, but before there is danger of 

 the ground freezing to any great ex- 

 tent. All the top growth should be cut 

 off and the bulbs reset about four inches 

 deep and mulched, preferably with an 

 inch or two of manure, after the ground
