easy to grow under glass when given the same 
treatment as freesias. All should be dried out and 
rested after flowering. OUR BULBS GROWN 
UNDER IDEAL CULTURAL CONDITIONS 
ARE SUPERIOR TO COLLECTED WILD 
BULBS. 
BRODIAEA CAPITATA 
B. capitate 
Called California Hyacinth. Slender stems 
12 to 18 in. high terminate in a close cluster 
of violet-blue flowers. In mild climates flowers 
in October, six weeks after planting, and re¬ 
mains in bloom till March or April, producing 
as many as 20 flower stems from one bulb. 
Especially desirable in the garden and under 
glass. Those who know it only as a wild 
flower will hardly recognize it under cultiva¬ 
tion so greatly does it improve in the size 
and profusion of its bloom.
