CULTURAL NOTES 
Open package, store bulbs in a cool dry place until 
planted. 
Treat bulbs before planting with bichloride of mercury, 
1-1000; or the N. I. Ceresau (Lysol solution kills thrip only.) 
Plant every ten days in full sunlight away from trees 
and shrubs, May Ist to June 15th depending upon locality. 
Plant in single rows eight inches apart or double rows, 
one foot between rows. Dig trench six inches deep, place 
mixture of sheep manure and bonemeal in the bottom, 
cover with one inch of soil before placing bulbs; or a 
4-8-10 fertilizer, 3 lbs. to 100 sq. feet, may be used (glads 
like humus and water). 
Spray every ten days with tarter emetic, 2 tablespoons 
to 3 gallons of water, using 2 tablespoons of molasses as 
a sticker. Commercially, I use Salp as a spray. Syringing 
with water early in the morning helps to keep thrip away. 
Cultivate every week, or after every rain. In light soils 
mulching produces better blooms and bulbs, keep fertil- 
izers away from the bulbs (causes disease). Excessive cut- 
ting of foliage weakens the bulb. 
For exhibition purposes disbud to one stalk as growth 
appears. 
Dig the bulbs four to six weeks after flowering, before 
the ground freezes. Cure in a warm dry room in about 
three weeks. Remove the mother bulb and bulblets. Store 
in a cool dry place, temperature 40-50 degrees, in wire 
bottom trays, or pack in peat moss, or sifted coal ashes.
