HOW TO HANDLE BULBS WHEN THROUGH BLOOMING 
Spring flowering bulbs may be left in the ground after blooming provided they are in an isolated place where 
they can remain dry throughout the summer, but in most gardens the space is too limited to warrant this as con¬ 
tinuation of bloom is desired. If this is the case, it is advisable to lift up the bulbs carefully after they are through 
bloom, preferably a few weeks later, and transplant them close together in any convenient corner of the garden; give 
them one good watering and let them remain until the foliage has died down completely, at which time the bulbs 
will be fully ripened and can be dug up and stored away in shallow trays in a cool, airy place until the proper time 
to set them out again. Never cut off the foliage when green as this will weaken the bulbs and often prevent them 
from blooming, if bulbs are left in the ground after the blooming season, where other plants are growing, they may 
rot or fail to bloom the following season as they will not have the proper rest. 
NON-WARRANTY 
Most of the failures with seeds and bulbs are due to causes entirely beyond our control, such as unfavorable 
weather, too deep or too shallow planting, slugs, etc.; therefore, Hallawell Seed Co. gives no warranty, express or 
implied, as to description, purity, productiveness, or any other matter of any seeds, plants, bulbs, etc., they send out, 
and will be in no way responsible for the crop.
