DIELYTRA SPECTABILIS 
(Bleeding Heart) 
Upon receiving the roots they should all be 
potted into six- or eight-inch pots. If it is de- 
sired to force one plant at a time, place the first 
potted plant in a room where it may receive 
exposure to the sun for some part of the day. 
Water moderately and do not allow it to dry 
out but do not soak it. Plants (in the pots) that 
are to be reserved for later forcing should be 
left out of doors and covered with hay, straw, 
leaves or some such material so that they will 
remain moist but still available for bringing 
into the house when it is desired to force them. 
Freezing outside. will not injure them in the 
least. Room temperature is generally suitable 
for forcing but they will do better if some- 
what on the cool side. Forcings may be started 
off at intervals as desired — say two weeks 
apart. Flowering will take place in from three 
to six weeks according to temperature and sea- 
son forced as plants flower in a much shorter 
period of time as the season advances. After 
flowering the plant may be kept and planted 
out in the garden in the early spring.
