FALL- CATALOGUE OF BUL8S THAT BLOOM FOR 1897. 
17 
We know of no other low-priced bulb that is so shamefully 
neglected. Their long, wiry stems fit them admirabley for cut - 
ting, and for late spring bedding they have few equals, bloom¬ 
ing, as they do, so freely, and bridging over the gap between 
the Tulips and the early garden flowers. For this purpose 
plant them three or four inches apart and two inches deep, 
with the claws downwards. They bear the most lovely flowers 
imaginable-pink, white, black, yellow, red, blush and varie¬ 
gated, each about two inches in diameter and as double and as 
perfectly imbricated as a Dahlia or Bos**. After the foliagt 
turns yellow the bulbs should be lifted and not replaced un - 
til late in the fall, or they will spring up before winter. Al¬ 
ways choose a sheltered location. For house culture, plant 
five or six bulbs in a 5-inch pot, and treat as Hyacinths. 
They are charming winter bloomers.
