How are bulbs treated after flowering? 
In the garden the leaves should thoroughly mature and turn brown 
before the tops are removed. Dr. R. C. Allen reports that the d>te 
of digging the bulbs is most important. Lifted on May 1 and replanted 
in the fall, none of the bulbs produced flowers. Approximately 20 
per cent of those lifted on May 15 produced flowers, while bulbs dug 
June 1, bloomed normally. For the particular soil on which these 
experiments were carried out, Tulips and Narcissus responded to an 
application of all types of fertilizer, a 5-10-5 mixture resulting in the 
greatest Increase In weight of the bulbs.
