win.er-howering can be done in October,
or in September, il you wish early flowers.
When you pot your bulbs, water them
well, then set the pots away in a cool dark
place to allow roots to form. Plant bulb
in spring, and roots and top make simulta-
neous growth, SO that you have weak. un-
satisfactory bloom. 1t is the same when
you plant bulbs in pots and put them at
once in q warm, light place. II you want
good flowers from potted bulbs you must
put them away in the dark for at least six
weeks to form roots The cooler the place,
provided they do not freeze, the better.
When you bring bulbs TO the light, do
not put them in very warm ROOM or they
will make a weak. rapid growth, and very
often the buds will blast. If you have a
room that is proof against frost adjoining
one in which fire is kept, keep your bulbs
there. The cooler you can keep the air OF
the room in which your bulbs bloom, and
have it above frost, the longer the flowers
will last. If hyacinths show a tendency TO
develop buds IN a little lunch down among
the leaves, make a CAP OF thick brown
paper, like cone, cut off it's apex and slip
the cone over the pot The flower-stalk
will reach up toward the light coming in
through the opening at the top, and in this
manner you lengthen it.
In selecting tulips for pot culture get
single sorts. They bloom better than the
double ones, and are really more desirable
in all ways. Among hyacinths, too, the
