BULB GROWING IN BOWLS 81 VASES. 
Much interest has been added to Bulb growing 
by the method of growing them in ornamental 
bowls and vases. Many reasons can be given 
for the popularity of this method of culture, 
but probably the most important one is the 
absolute simplicity and assurance of success, as 
ilowers of the highest quality may be produced 
without any special attention beyond 
watering. 
The material most suitable is a mixture of 
fibre, shell and charcoal, which we prepare 
specially, and is quite clean to use. Make the 
material nicely moist and place a fair quantity 
in the bottom of the bowl, then place in the 
bulbs and fill up round the bulbB, leaving the 
crowns bare at the top. Make firm, and place 
in a dark, cool cupboard or cellar for about 
a mouth to allow' the roots to get started into 
growth ; gradually udmit light, and when the 
growth at the top is two or three inches high 
bring into tho room, and place in a light 
position. Nothing more will now be needed 
than to keep an eye on them for water (no set 
rule can be given for watering, it will depend 
chielly on the temperature of the room), but 
don’t allow them to get too dry or too wet. 
CHRISTMAS HYACINTHS. 
These beautiful Hyacinths, introduced by us, have fully merited the confidence with which 
we recommended them ; carefully grown, they will flower well in advance of the ordinary Hyacinths. 
We also offer these prepared Hyacinths in a smaller size suitable for bowl culture, which if planted 
early will give a fine display at the festive season.
