Grow Bulls In Pots With 
HALLAWELL’S BULB FIBRE 
Anyone can grow bulbs in pots with ex- 
cellent results. We grow them every 
year for demonstration purposes, espe- 
cially Narcissi, Hyacinths, Crocus, 
Freesias, Sparaxis, Muscari, etc. Of the 
larger bulbs such as Narcissi, plant 4 or 
5 in a 6- or 7-inch pot. Of the smaller 
bulbs put many in a pot, plant them 
close together and about 1 inch deep. 
Moisten the bulb fibre before planting 
and keep it moist after. 
In our San Francisco climate, best re- 
sults are obtained by setting the pot or 
bowl of bulbs out in the garden where 
it will be in bright daylight and cool. 
Leave it there until the first buds ap- 
pear ready to open, then take it into the 
house. In most severe climates it may 
be too cold to leave them in the garden 
but we think it is important to keep 
them cold if they are stored indoors. 
Bulb fibre may also be used for planting 
in bowls without drainage and it con- 
tains all the necessary plant food. 
1% pounds of Bulb Fibre will fill a 
7-inch pot. You may use it again by 
adding fertilizer.

TESTIMONIALS 
“Last tall I purchased from you 50 white and 50 
pink ranunculus. I wish to say that they are sen- 
sational. The flowers are 3 to 3% inches of 
beautiful form and color. As to height the descrip- 
tion in your catalog is inadequate. Instead of 
12 to 15 inches they are 30 to 36 inches and very 
free blooming. I cannot praise them too highly. 
You may repeat my order for next year.” 
H.P.M., Virginia. 
“This year I am buying all of my begontas from 
Hallawell’s. No more experimenting for me.” 
Mrs. A. E., Santa Barbara 
“May I add that I have never bought gladiolus 
bulbs to equal those purchased from you. The 
spikes of flowers are beautiful.”
