ANEMONES. 
Ne of the spring flowers surpass the Anemone in brilliancy of color and 
profusion of bloom. They are very lasting, and have of recent years become 
very popular for cut-flower use and for table decorations. The florists now buy 
thousands of them to force. Plant in October or November, six roots in a six-inch 
pot or bulb pan, covering them one inch. They may be kept in a cellar or frame 
protected from frost until spring, when they may be placed in the greenhouse or 
window to bloom.
