CULTURE—A popular method of culture is to provide a pan or box, and cover 
the bottom to the depth of one inch with sphagnum moss, placing the bulb 
immediately on top and then covering with still another layer of sphagnum 
moss. They should be kept moist and moderately warm. As soon as roots 
appear plant in pots in a light soil, one inch below the surface, and water 
cautiously until plant has shown growth, then increase the amount. Good 
drainage is essential. 
While professional gardeners start tubers in pots indoors during early 
spring, the dormant bulbs may be planted 10 inches apart in the open ground 
during May with excellent results. They will thrive in partial shade. Planted 
on the north side of a house they will make a beautiful display and in those 
places where hardly any other flower will bloom satisfactorily. 
We offer the following colors: Orange, Pink, Rose, White, Yellow, Scarlet 
and Mixed. Price, ea. 35c; 6 for $2.00; 12 for $3.50. All large bulbs.
