Large bulbs are one and one-quarter inches and 
up in diameter, and produce the finest show spikes. 
Medium bulbs measure three-quarters to one and 
One-quarter inches and produce very satisfactory blooms 
though the average spike is smaller than from large 
bulbs. 
Small bulbs are one-quarter to three-quarter inches 
and sometimes produce small spikes. They produce 
larger bulbs for next year. They are a good way to 
start in with new expensive varieties if your budget 
is limited. 
Bulblets seldom bloom and are often hard to germ- 
inate. Experienced growers know what to do and usu- 
ally peel all expensive varieties. Amateurs should try 
their hands at germinating low-priced bulblets or care- 
fully follow the advice of experienced growers.
