Hyacinths — How to Grow Them 



INDOOR CULTURE. Plant in pots or boxes, using ordinary' garden soil, any time from September to 

 Februan.-. Allow a small portion of the bulb to be exposed above the soil. Water thoroughly and put away 

 in a dark, cool situation 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 inters-als 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 and heat. Keep water fresh. 



OPEN GROUND CULTURE. Select, if possible, a warm, sunny location. Ordinan.- 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. Ordinary litter will be all that is necessar>'.
