BARR & SUGDEN'S COMPENDIUM 



Culture, whether m pots or out of doors, same as recommended for the Ramosus section. 



Time op Plantino. — On light well-dramed soils the bnlbs may ]>e planted as early as the end of 

 March ; but on stifE soils, and such as are somewhat damp, the end of April or beginning of May would 

 be early enough, unless required to be in flower early in July. To accomplish this, in Jaiuiary or February 

 plant three bulbs in a six or seven-mch pot, and treat them as recommended for the early flowering 

 varieties. In May transfer them from the pots to' where they are intended to bloom, without diaturbing 

 the roots.
