TULIPS 
HOW TO PLANT TU- 
LIPS AND HYACINTHS: 
Bulbs should be bought 
when they are first 
available (ours come in 
September and Octo- 
ber) and subjected to 
a pre-cooling period in 
the refrigerator in a 
temperature of 40 to 
45 degrees for a period - — 
of 4 to 8 weeks prior to planting. Do not plant 
in the open before December Ist. The size of 
the bulb has a definite bearing on the size of the 
flower that will be produced. With most varieties, 
bulbs measuring 114 inches in diameter will make 
the best showing the first year. Prepare the soil 
thoroughly by spading it deeply and enriching 
it with bonemeal or Peat Moss fortified with Vig- 
oro, the complete plant food. Do not use a loca- 
tion used for Tulips the year before. Tulips and 
hyacinths are really northern bulbs and lie dor- 
mont during extreme cold weather. This coldness 
is actually beneficial to the bulb and that’s why 
we urge you to pre-cool them before planting. 
Bulbs’ which have not thus been pre-cooled and 
planted late will usually not produce the best 
results.

HOW TO PLANT DAFFODILS 
AND NARCISSUS 
The tender kinds with small clusters of flowers 
are easily grown in water and pebbles indoors. 
Narcissi are not desirable subjects for formal 
plantings; they show off to best advantage when 
they give the impression of not having been 
planned or planted. A _ slightly sheltered spot 
without too much sun is best. Soil should be 
dug deeply, enriched with Vigoro, and mulched 
with peat moss for best results. Place bulbs up- 
right and cover with three or more inches of 
soil. Place them in spots where you desire them 
to appear in later seasons because they mul- 
tiply rapidly.

entage. Ideal for either display or cut flowers.
