 lous care with the desire to ofifer our friends the very best of their kind. 



INDOOR CULTURE. Plant in pots or boxes, using ordinary garden soil, any time 

 from September to February. Allow a small portion of the bulb to be exposed above the 

 soil. Water thoroughly and put away in a dark, cool place until signs of growth com- 

 mence, then bring into the light and heat. For holiday blooming, pot early in September, 

 and for a succession of bloom, plant at intervals of about two weeks. To grow in water, 

 place the bulbs in glasses and fill with clean water; leave them in a dark, cool cellar until 

 the glass is well filled with roots, then bring to the light. 



OPEN-GROUND CULTURE. Select a warm, sunny location. Ordinary garden 

 soil enriched with well-rotted stable manure, spaded to a depth of 12 inches, will suffice. 

 Plant the bulbs 5 inches deep and 6 or 7 inches apart. Set out any time from September 

 until severe freezing weather. While not required, it is better to give winter protection. 

 Large exhibition-size bulbs, 15c. each, $1.50 per doz., $12 per 100, postage or express paid.
