Cultural Directions. _
A good soil such as is used for potting bulbs is a suitable compost for growing these varieties.
Plant bulbs in Flats or Pots. A 6-inch pot will hold about seven bulbs. Cover the same to a depth of
one inch and place in a cool moist place. When they have made an inch or two of growth, they can
then be moved into a warmer situation and kept growing, an occasional feeding of weak liquid
manure will help to produce a larger flower spike.
