Culture 
For pot culture, good drainage is essential. Customers have very 
fine resu‘ts with ordinary good garden soil, but for the finest flowers, 
start the tubers in small pots or shallow boxes. Cover the bottom 
with one inch of peat or sphagnum moss, Dlace the bulb on top, and 
cover with another layer of peat or moss. Keep moist with a tem- 
perature of 65°. When ready for repotting, well rotted manure may 
be added to the soil, and a cooler temperature maintained. Do not 
allow them to suffer for lack of water. Magic Mats (see Page 102) 
are good. 
Vutdoors, plant them 8 inches apart about the middle to the end 
of May in a moist shady location and do not let them suffer for lack 
of water. In fal!, dig up bulbs before cold weather, dry, and store in 
sand in a cool place.
