Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bulb Book There was a time when bulbous plants of all kinds received the attention of a considerable section of horticulturists. Dean Herbert was the high priest of the cult, among the most notable of his disciples being Wilson Saunders, Joad, Michael Foster, Peter Barr, Sir Charles Strickland, and Max Leichtlin. They collected and cultivated bulbous plants in the same spirit as predominates among the leading fanciers of orchids to-day. But with this difference, there wasn't any gambling in bulbs. There are, of course, certain kinds of bulbs which rank among the most popular garden plants; but there are scarcely any collectors of species outside botanical gardens. Bulbous plants of the Lily, Iris, and Amaryllis families are both numerous and varied. Many of them are reputedly difficult to cultivate, yet not more so than orchids used to be. The worst in this respect are the species which grow naturally in intense sunshine and have a definite period of dry rest. Such are many of the Crinums, Buphanes, and the Xiphiod Irises. Years ago, bulb fanciers would meet and discuss the merits and requirements of their favourites in the most enlightening and stimulating manner. But how many of the present-day cultivators show any inclination to do this? The plants are out of favour, presumably because they are not easy to manage, an objection that is generally dissipated by a better knowledge of the essential requirements. Gardening that is worthy of the name has higher aims than the cultivation of the vulgar crowd of plants which anybody can manage. The development of orchids as garden plants may be taken as a proof of what can be accomplished by persevering experiment.
