CULTURAL DIRECTIONS 
TULIPS 
Plant Tulips 6 inches deep and 8 inches apart in 
rich, deep, well drained soil. After the bulbs die 
down, lift the bulbs, dry them in a cool, airy 
place, dust with sulphur, and store until October 
when they should be replanted. Do not plant Tu- 
lips in small, square blocks or thin lines! Very 
pleasing effects can be obtained by planting 
them in irregularly shaped drifts of a dozen or 
more bulbs of one variety. 
DAFFODILS 
Although Daffodils thrive-in most soils, a good 
garden soil with ample drainage is preferred. The 
tlowers need a fair amount of sun, especially in 
the morning. 
HY ACINTHS 
Hyacinths thrive in a rich, well drained sandy 
loam, planted about 5 inches deep in a sunny 
location or partially shaded location. Leave in 
the ground for three years; then remove bulbs 
and replant them in October or November. 
DUTCH IRIS 
Plant in sun or partial shade, 3 to 4 inches deep 
and from 4 to 6 inches apart. If planted in a 
sunny location they may be left in the ground for 
years in succession. 
CROCUS 
Plant in fall and replant every 2 or 3 years, 3 or 
4 inches deep in good soil in sun or filtered shade. 
about 3 inches apart, best in groups. 
LILIES 
Lilies do best in open, porous soil, require per- 
fect drainage and shade from hot sun near their 
roots. It is therefore best to plant them in peren- 
nial border or among low growing shrubs. Ma- 
nure should never be used, and no fertilizer 
should contact the bulb. 
MUSCARI 
Hardy everywhere. No special care required. 
Plant 8 or 4 inches deep in shade or sun,
