Indoor Culture. Plant in pots or boxes, using ordinary 

 garden soil, any time from September to February. Plant 

 about two inches deep. Water thoroughly and put away in a 

 dark, cool place until signs of growth commence, 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 

 place until the glass is well filled with roots, then bring to 

 light. 



Open-Ground Culture. Select a warm, sunny location. Or- 

 dinary 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 — before the ground 

 freezes, cover the beds with material such as leaves, straw, 

 pine branches, etc., to a depth of four inches. Do not un- 

 cover too early in the spring.
