Excerpt from Childs' Catalogue of Fall Bulbs That Bloom, Plants, Seeds, Shrubs, Fruits, Etc: With a Treatise on the Culture of Bulbs, Indoors and OutNo yard should be without an assortment of hardy bulbs. Even if it is but a few feet of breath ing space between the walls of brick, there is room for a few choice bulbs, if there is room for a ¿ower bed at all. People forget that they get a double use of every foot of ¿ower bed by having hardy spring bulbs as the first crop. These pop up while everything else is shivering, bloom gaily, and then ripen up their tops and die down again, the bulbs lying in the ground for the rest of the summer absolutely dormant, as unconcerned as so many stones. Thus the same space can be used again for summer ¿owers. The only pre caution necessary is not to use deep rooting plants or perennials in the same bed. Poppies, Petunias, Candytuft, Portulaca, Nasturtiums, Asters, Phlox Verbenas, etc will not interfere with the dor mant bulbs, and may be planted in the same bed even before the bulbs have ripened their foliage and died down.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
