tive, (ID) Informal Decorative, (C) Cac-_ 
tus, (SC) Semi Cactus, (B) Ball or Show, 
(P) Peony. 
Dimensions—After eacn listing, numbers 
such as 6-8 5 appear. The 6-8 means that 
the flower will grow from 6 to 8 inches in 
diameter, and the last number such as 5 
means the height the plant will grow in 
feet. 
Culture—Plant 2 or 3 feet apart in holes 
about 4 to 6 inches deep, laying the bulbs 
flat with the eye uppermost. Never stand 
bulb on end. Soil must be well worked and 
Kept cultivated until bloom buds appear, 
after which keep the surface from crust- 
ing. After the young plant appears above 
the ground, keep the soil moist, but never 
water before the plant is above the 
ground as this may cause them to rot or 
damp off. Never allow fertilizer to come 
in contact with the bulb or plant. Allow 
only one shoot to grow and disbud for 
large blossom and long stems.
