A WINTER LONG DELIGHT INDOORS 
EF LOWERS from bulbs bring joy not only for a long season in the Spring — 
from March until June — but add their good cheer to dispel the dreariness 
of long Winter days. A few pots blooming on the window sill or in the Winter 
window garden, will change the whole atmosphere of the room and for this 
purpose they may be had in long succession, from Christmas to Easter. Here 
again their cultivation is of: the simplest. All that is necessary is to place 
the bulbs in pots. The bulbs are placed with the tops just level with the soil 
surface, about half an inch below the rim of the pot. Allow them to make 
roots in some cool, dark place, water pots in cellar weekly, and then bring 
them into living room or sun porch to bloom, but not before the bud is three 
inches long. Bulb pans (shallow flower pots) with half an inch of broken 
pots, pebbles or crushed shell on the bottom for drainage, are used for planting. 
Hyacinths and many Daffodils may be grown directly in pebbles and water, 
in moist peat moss or bulb fibre (obtained from Seedsmen). Peat moss and 
bulb fibre should be thoroughly moistened before use. Allow them to make 
roots in a cool, dark place, under no circumstances place them into the living 
room before the bud is three inches long. The longer the pots remain in a 
cool place the better and when placed into the room or greenhouse, a moderate 
temperature is to be preferred. Avoid dry room temperature.
