M 3- ISci is the price of 3 medium size bulbs. Here too, we must request 
that you order in the quantity listed. A medium size bulb is 
over %” and under 1%” in diameter. They will produce 
saleable flowers. It is a more economical way of starting in 
with a variety. 
S 10-25c is the price on ten small bulbs. These will measure %4” to %” 
in diameter and will usually produce bloom and a good size 
bulb for the next season. ‘They are usually produced from 
bulblets planted early in the season. Thus you are assured 
of getting nice bulbs grown from bulblets in two years time. 
This is the cheapest way of getting a start in a variety, pro- 
‘vided you are willing to wait another year’s time to get results. 
B 50- 25c This is the ‘price for 50 Bulblets. Bulblets are the cheap- 
est and ‘slowest way of getting results. On’ the more 
common varieties, the bulblets are screened over a 4’’ screen. 
On the scarcer varieties they are put out on a “field run” basis, 
but we always try to put the largest ones in the package. 
Germination and growth is very good in some varieties and 
very poor in others. We have tried to indicate the results in 
our comments. Some varieties will make only small bulbs the 
first year, others will make a few medium and large sizes, as 
well as a number of small ones. A great deal depends on the 
earliness of planting and the care, water supply, etc. We try 
to peel, or at least crack the hull on all the higher priced 
. bulblets before we plant them. This helps a great deal in the 
quick growth. No guarantee of growth or germination is made 
on bulblets. In planting, we try to plant our bulblets at least 
2” apart to give ample room for growth. We plant as early 
in the spring as we can get the ground worked, planting about 
1%” or 2” deep. Storing bulblets in a warm room for 6 to 8 
weeks before planting sometimes helps to promote quick 
germination.
