Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulb Culture for the Amateur Scillas or Squills. - These little flowers are very striking in early spring owing to their intense blue colour, and as the bulbs are very cheap they should be in every garden. The species known as Scilla sibirica is the mos-t satisfactory, although Scilla bifolia is also good. Late in May, Scilla campanulata blooms, and as it is at a time when the spring bulbs are nearly over, it is much appreciated. It is a larger growing plant than the early fl'owering species, but although it is quite attractive, the flowers are of a duller blue than the others. There is a white variety, Scilla campanulata alba, which should be planted for contrast. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
