How tea Succeed with 
ANEMONES and RANUNCULUS 
Rainy winters impress the necessity for good drainage in 
beds planted to anemones and ranunculus. They will not 
grow in soil saturated from heavy rainfall, but will reward 
us with countless flowers if we are careful in planting. Raise 
the soil level in beds devoted to these flowers so that when 
planted the bulbs will be above the surface level of sur- MUSCARI HEAVENLY BLUE. FB119. Clear blue fra- 
rounding terrain. Soak bulbs for one hour before planting; grant flowers bloom from February to April. 12 for 
plant October-December at depth of 2 to 3 inches, with Voc, 100! for 5:00 
small ‘‘prongs’’ down. Be sure to keep the soil moist until 
rains begin. Bulbs will not grow if the soil dries out before 
foliage appears. 
FREESIAS, TRITONIAS, BABIANAS SPARAXIS AND BABY 
GLADIOLUS: Plant as early as bulbs can be obtained, in

ripens.
