Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Production of Lily Bulbs The production of lily bulbs in America is a comparatively new venture, although the garden culture of lilies is an old one. The industry has received a decided impetus in the last few years, due in the largest measure to the discovery that the production of the stocks presents no unusual difficulties; indeed, most of the species may be easily grown in the regions of the country adapted to their development. The information that has contributed most to the interest in the venture relates to the successful reproduction of the vast majority from seed, effective propagation from scales, and a large application of propagation by bulbils and stem bulblets. Few groups of plants present such diversity of reproductive adaptation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Regal Lily The Regal lily, like many others, is most easily and satisfactorily produced from spring-planted seed. If well grown, the seedlings will-give some normal blossoms the second year, and will blossom full the third, when the bulbs should reach a merchantable size of 6 to 9-inches in circumference. The seed, planted one-fourth to inches deep, may be started in flats in the greenhouse, in frames, or, with care, in the Open field. Stem-bulblet production seems to be induced by unfavorable cultural conditions and apparently is associated with poor bulb development.

This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Flowering Bulbs for Fall Planting, 1925 Although less graceful than the lily, the Hyacinth is still Queen of the Dutch Bulbs, and is the most familiar of them all. It is perfect in form, of beautiful coloring, and carries its burden of fragrant bells with a stateliness characteristic of no other small flower. It does equally as well indoors as in the garden, and can be grown in fiber, water, sand, or soil. When grown in sand or soil it should be enriched with bone meal or sheep manure: For indoor blooming, it is best to plant the bulbs in Prepared Bulb Fiber, and bring them to the light at intervals of ten days or two weeks, for a succession of bloom. The bulbs should be planted from 4 to 6 inches deep and about 6 inches apart. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Lilies and Their Culture: A Reliable Guide for Beginners Since the time when the Golden Banded Queen (lilium Auratum), only a few years ago, burst upon us in her wondrous splen dour - taking captive the startled senses of all, not merely horticulturists, but the public generally, by the enormous Size and number of her flowers, their powerful fragrance, their elegant and graceful contour, their richness of ornamentation on a pure white ground, and by the general stateliness of the plant, - the cultivation of Lilies has received a great impetus. Since that date, not only has Japan sent us Lily bulbs by tens of thousands, but America, both from her Eastern and Western Provinces, has contributed largely. India, Siberia, and the Caucasus, &c., &e., have furnished their quota, and Lily cultivators, who some ten or twelve years ago might almost have been counted on the fingers, are now to be numbered by the thousand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulbs, 1929 In doing almost anything the thought of permanence is quite often the domi nant idea, so perhaps one of the most ideal ways in which to use bulbs is to naturalize them for permanent effects. By that we mean to plant those bulbs-which are adapted to that purpose in such a way and Under conditions that will permit them to reproduce their blossoms year after year with little or no attention on our part. Not all bulbs are suitable for naturalizing but the smaller bulbs, certain wild and species tulips and crocus as well as all kinds of narcissus and a few lilies, are ideal for this purpose.
