COLCHICUM 
FLOWERING WITHOUT SOIL OR WATER 
A most interesting feat of Colchicums is their ability to flower from dry 
bulbs without soil or water. This makes them valuable novelty gifts for friends 
and most fascinating for shut-ins to watch develop. 
The flat based, clean bulbs may be set on a table, on the window sill 
or in a container where they will start flowering. After flowering in the house, 
the bulbs should be planted in the garden at once. Good loamy soil is preferred 
with the tip of the long bulbs placed 1 to 2 inches under the surface.
