Barr’s Phytobroma, the best Manure for Daffodils, Hyacinths, Tulips, etc., and for 
Flower Borders generally. It should be mi.xed with the soil below the bulbs at planting time 
at the rate of 2 to 3 ozs. to the square yard, and in spring, when the bulbs are showing above 
ground, a top-dressing may be given of 3 oz. to the square yard. For Pots, mix Phytobroma with 
the soil, to be used at the rate of 1 lb. to the bushel, and in Spring, when growth is showing, top- 
dress once a fortnight, using a small teaspoonful and well mixing with surface soil. 2-lb. tin, I/- ;

Barr’s Improved Peat-fibre, Shell, and Charcoal Mixture for growing Bulbs in 
Bowls, Jardinets, Glasses, etc. Specially recommended for Hyacinths grown in glasses : half fill 
the glasses with the preparation, and add water till no more can be absorbed. Place the bulb so 
as to rest the base on the preparation, and tie it down with brown paper, leaving an opening in 
the centre of the paper for the shoot. When the bulb has well rooted the paper may be removed ; 
care must be taken that the material in the glass is kept wet. The same remarks apply to bulbs 
grown in bowls, etc. : they must be kept in place till they have rooted. Our P’ibre Mixture is sent
