Winter bloom is always de-
sirable in the window garden
and many have come to look
upon the forced bulbs as one
Of the easy ways to have a
variety Of bloom during the
dreary season.
Most gardeners depend upon
the tulips for this color but
there are many other kinds
which are useful for this pur-
pose. The hardy spring flower
ing bulbs, such as the daffo-
dis, hyacinths and crocus have
their place. Where cool tenn
peratures are available one
might try the freezias and an
emones (St. Brigid). For the
warmer situations one might
try some Of the tropicals such
as the amaryllis, spreklia, ne
rine, euchariS and ismene.
Keep Bulbs Cool
There is q major difference
in the spring Towering bulbs
over those from the tropics.
The former need to be potted

more in which to become we'll

root growth, and 1t should be
