BULBS For WILD GARDENS 48° NATURAL PLANTATIONS. A natural plantation of Narcissus Poeticus Ornatus. HE WILD GARDEN is nearer to nature than any other style of garden. It is simple, inexpensive, permanent, and being ar- ranged on nature’s plan it is not readily destroyed by occasional neglect. Its SuBjects are the best of our native plants and plants allied to ‘them from countries having climates similar to our own. From northern Japan, Siberia, northern Europe and the mountainous parts of southern Europe, there have been obtained many plants adapted to the American Wild Garden. ; Among hardy herbaceous plants the Asclepias, Asters, Boltonias, Campanulas, Columbines, Dictamnus, Epilobium, Echi- nops, Day-Lilies, Lobelias, Lythrum, Monarda, Evening-Primroses, Rudbeckias, Stokesia, Thermopsis, are a few of the many available. We shall be pleased to furnish a larger list with prices upon application. ; The following bulbous plants” are especially suitable for natural plantations, and when once planted hold their own and increase with little or no further care. 100 1,000 | Ico 1,000 Allium Aureum, Bright Yellow . . . . . .|$0.75| $6.00 Lilium Tigrinum.—. .

It is important in the pot culture of the hyacinth to have rich, light soil—if possible, a com- post of one-third decayed turf, one-third old rotten cow manure, and the remainder equal parts of sharp sand and leaf-mould. This compost should be made a few weeks before being used. If the bulbs are to be potted singly, pots five inches in diameter are the proper size,and the special Hyacinth pots which are about two inches deeper than ordinary pots, are preferable. For drainage, cover the hole in the pot with a piece of broken pot, and over this place a layer of moss. Break off any offsets which appear at the base of the bulbs, and in potting place each bulb so that its top shall be half an inch below the surface of the soil and an inch below the rim of the pot. The soil should be of usual natural moisture, and should be pressed moderately firm. The filled pots muy be placed in a cold frame where there is protection from frost, and well watered. An excellent plan is to place them on a bed of moist, sifted coal ashes, covering the pots to a depth of six inches with the same material. When well rooted, which will be in about six weeks, the bulbs may be brought indoors and forced. For the first two or three weeks they should be kept in a temperature not exceeding 50 degrees. Success in forcing depends much on their having strong roots before being brought to the light. The top grows rapidly, and unless the roots are started much in advance they are unable to nour- ish the plant, and failure results. Hyacinths for early use may be potted in September or October; late planting is not advisable, as the bulbs deteriorate; when desired for late use, it is better to pot them in October and keep them in a cold frame above freezing until it is desired to force them into bloom. To obtain dwarf foliage and fine flower spikes, Hyacinths when being forced should have plenty of manure-water, fresh air, and should be kept very near the glass. The blooms last much longer if shaded from the sun. Hyacinths in Fibre. A most interesting method of growing bulbs, is to place them in bowls, and jardinieres, filled with fibre. For this system of culture no drainage is necessary; place a few pieces of charcoal at the bottom of the bowl, cover with fibre according to the depth of bowl, placing the bulbs so that their tips reach to within half inch of the rim. The spaces between and around the bulbs to be filled with fibre carefully firmed. The bulbs will require no attention for the first few weeks, and may be set in a warm airy position where light is excluded. Narcissus, Tulips, and many other bulbs, may be grown in fib-e. Hyacinths in Glasses. The single varieties are, with a few exceptions, best adapted to this mode of culture; they produce finer flower spikes than the double. Fill the glass with clear, soft water, so as nearly to touch the base of the bulb, putting a small piece of charcoal in each glass to keep the water pure, and afford some nourishment. The filled glasses should be placed in a dry, cool, dark place, and kept there until the roots almost touch the bottom of the glass, when they may be exposed gradually to the light. If the water in the glasses becomes foul, or diminished, replace it with fresh water at about the same temperature as the atmosphere in which the bulbs are growing; otherwise it need not be changed. When well started, the bulbs should have plenty of light and air, without draughts, in order that the best development and brilliancy of color may be attained. Hyacinths in the Open Garden. The ground should be dug to a depth of at least fifteen inches, and enriched with plenty of well- rotted cow manure. Hyacinths may be planted from September until winter sets in; although if the highest success is sought they should be in the ground by the end of October. Bulbs planted early develop roots in the autumn, and these, if protected from injury by freezing and thawing alternately during the winter, enable the bulbs to produce much larger flower spikes than if the roots are not developed until spring. Frost reaching the bulbs raises them up, thus detaching them from their roots. Protection may be afforded by covering the beds with straw or leaves to a depth of six or eight inches, which should be removed early in the spring. Hyacinths should be set six inches below the surface of the ground and six inches apart. 2 Hyacinths growing in Fibre.

FARQUHAR’S EXTRA LARGE NAMED BEDDING AND FORCING HYACINTHS. The Reduced Price at which these Hyacinths are offered this year makes them attractive for out-door bedding and winter forcing. This highly decorative class of Hyacirths is of unsurpassed excellence for producing fine color effects in public parks and private grounds. Being of distinct and decided shades, of almost uniform height, and blooming at the same time, they admit of the most artistic grouping. They are also very desirable for forcing singly in pots or grouped in bulb pans. Farquhar’s Selected Bright Red. Farquhar’s Selected Crimson. Farquhar’s Selected Rose. Farquhar’s Selected Pink.

HESE beautiful Hyacinths are indispensable to the florist in his autumn and winter cut- flower work; while to the amateur they are among the most easily cultivated and most satisfactory ot flowering bulbs. The white variety, if planted early in September and gently forced, will bloom in November; the others require from two to three weeks longer. When grown in pots or pans they are most effective planted in groups of six or more bulbs in each. White. Extra Large. 60c. per doz ; $4.50 per 100; $40.00 per 1,000. White.

If by mail, add 12 cents per dozen or $1 00 per 100. VERY decorative class of bulbous plants for green- house and window cultivation, but not hardy out of doors in our climate. They produce enormous trusses of delicately fragrant flowers, varying in color from snowy white to deep yellow. Treat the bulbs in the same manner as noted for Hyacinths, except that the bulbs should be set half an inch deeper in the soil. They may be easily and quickly forced; our florists frequently have them in bloom by Thanksgiving. Early Large-Flowering Paper White.

This is the z Lh apt bss j i : I ps day of the natural garden and the Daffo- i Awe PR pe dils are among its most charming subjects. Once planted there is no limit to their existence and they improve and multiply each year, provided they are replanted when after several years they become too crowded. There is not a single sort in the entire list that may not be advan- tageously used. The accompanying illus- tration shows a natural border of Poeticus, one of the cheapest, yet most fascinating Daffodils. Other inexpensive forms suitable for such massing are Barri Conspicuus and many of the Leedsi and Incompara- bilis sections, while the large trumpet varieties, many of which are likewise inex- pensive, may be planted in comparatively small clumps with good effect. Each clump or mass should be of one variety — they should not be mixed —but the effect of planting a number of kinds each in a separate clump is most pleasing and extremely inter- esting. For Formal Beds. The Daffodils are charming, too, planted in beds, especially when combined with an undergrowth of the blue Scilla Siberica, Forget-me-not, or other dwarf spring flowers. They should be planted in October or early in November. The bulbs should be set from four to five inches deep; the larger sorts five or six inches apart and the small varieties three to four inches. They should never be planted in very windy situations. For Clumps in Hardy Plant Borders. Groups of Daffodils in borders of hardy herbaceous plants and along the edges of shrubbery beds are exceedingly effective and delicately beautiful. For Greenhouse Culture. The com- mercial florists have been foremost to give the Daffodils the attention due them. They have learned how easily and successfully these lovely flowers may be forced into bloom during winter (even as early as Christmas), and how fascinating and lasting are the blossoms. They may be planted in pots or bulb pans six inches or more in diameter, several bulbs in each, according to size, and treated in the same manner as Hyacinths. A Border of Narcissus Poeticus.

Many of the late flowering lilies cannot be shipped from Japan until October, and to save our customers the annoyance and expense of shipments as they mature, we have decided to send all the early varieties, SPECIAL approximately September 15-30. The late sorts, being subject to delays of steamers, etc., will be forwarded early in November, or as soon thereafter as they arrive. We advise the preparation of the Lily- beds or borders early in autumn, covering them with four to six inches of leaves or other litter, to prevent the ground freezing until the bulbs arrive. The late sorts comprise the following: Auratum, Batemanni, Krameri, Henryi and Speciosum. li Lilies are wanted by mail, add 5 cents each. TWO RARE LILIES FROM CHINA HARDY, BEAUTIFUL, FRAGRANT. THE FINEST NOVELTIES EXTANT. Mr. E. H. Wilson, the famous plant collector, collected for us the bulbs now offered, in North-western China. He considers this the finest of alllilies. It is absolutely hardy, and is excellent for forcing. It has been predicted that this will become the Easter Lily of the future, and being so hardy, may be grown at home. The flowers are white, slightly suffused with pink and with a beautiful shade of canary yellow at the centre, and extending part way up the trumpet. It is delightfully perfumed, reminding one of the jasmine, and lacking the heavy oppressive odor of most lilies. Blooms out-of-doors early in July. Awarded a Gold Medal by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, and a first-class certificate by the Royal International Exhibition, London, 1912. Bulbs, ready in October, each, $1.50; dozen, $15.00. The bulbs offered were also collected by Mr. Wilson. This is one of the strongest growing lilies—frequently attaining a height of six to eight feet. The flowers vary in number from five to ten on a stalk, and in size and shape resembling Lilium Harrisii, greenish white, shaded purple on the outside, and of the purest white within, with a tint of citronin the centre. The flowers have a pleasing fragrance. This lily will undoubtedly be largely used for outdoor planting as well as for forcing. Many consider it the finest of all tubular-flowered lilies. It flowers somewhat later than Lilium myriophyllum and being of larger growth, has a distinct place. Bulbs, ready in October, each, $1.50; dozen, $15.00. chusetts Horticultural Society, 1912.

HE bulbs may be potted from Au- gust onward in a compost of equal parts turfy loam, leaf mold, rotten cow manure, and sand. It is best to start them in pots not exceeding twice their own diameter, in which they may re- main until started eight inches or more. They should be transferred then to larger pots in which to bloom, exercising great care not to disturb the roots or break away the soil from about them, and set- ing them considerably deeper in the larger pots. This method prevents the soil from becoming sour, and enables the roots forming at the base of the stem to become feeders, greatly increasing the number and size of the blossoms. LILIUM CANDIDUM.

N order to obtain fine specimens of Amaryllis the following method should be fellowed: On receipt of the bulbs in the autumn they should be placed where they will be always slightly moist and warm, under the benches of a greenhouse, for example; donot pot up the bulbs before the flowerbuds appear; when first potted give very little water, and pro- mote growth by giving moderate bottom heat ; increase the supply of water as the plants progress. Very often the mistake is made that bulbs are potted up too early; the conse- quence is that only leaf growth is made. ‘The proper soil for Amaryllis is turfy loam enriched with rotten manure.

HARDY PERENNIAL PLANTS. OLD-FASHIONED HARDY GARDEN FLOWERS. HE favorites of the old-time gardens are coming to the front, and deserved- ly so. No feature of the garden can be more satisfactory than a well-arranged Hardy Plant border, producing from April to November a continuous succession of charming flowers, much more interesting than the usual greenhouse assortment, and equally valuable for garden embellishment and cutting purposes. The Hardy Plants have the advantage of greater permanen- cy, requiring only cultivation, enriching, a slight mulch during winter, and occa- sional checking of the more robust grow- ers, to keep the plantation in good condi- tion for years. Where early flowers are desired we ad: vocate the introduction of groups of Nar- cissi, Scillas, Crocuses, Snowdrops, Chi- onodoxa and other Spring-flowering bul- bous plants, which should be planted in October, as well as Montbretias the har- dier species of Gladioli and Lilies for sum- mer blooming, and which may be planted in spring. We limit the present list to varieties which admit of being planted at this sea- son and which have been found generally hardy and desirable for the severe climate of New England.

Gentlemen:—It gives me great pleasure to inform you of the good results I have had with your Lawn Grass Seeds. I have used them extensively, not only in Massachusetts but in Washington, D. C., and in St. Louis, Mo., at both of which places there is difficulty in getting good Lawns, and where the successful results from your seeds have been remarkable. The Weld Garden in Brookline which has been so frequently described and illustrated in the leading periodicals of the country affords the very best evidence of the high quality, purity and permanence of your Lawn Grasses. Your Mixtures for various situations and for different parts of the country, I consider especially valuable. Yours truly, Duncan Finlayson. FARQUHAR’S BOSTON PARKS LAWN SEED.

FARQUHAR’S SPECIAL GRASS MIXTURES. . wl 4 ¢ ‘oe we ae YA ie, LP" it BY "hho y = Ie is a well-established fact that soils sown with a variety of different grasses which are adapted to the soil and which attain perfection at alternate months from April to September, produce very much larger and more satisfactory crops, both for hay and pasturage, than when only one or two kinds of grasses or clovers are sown. ‘The results given by our mixtures have been most satisfactory, and have resulted in a very large increase in our trade for same. We unhesitatingly recommend them for use on the largest scale. Fall seeding is preferable, but spring sowing will be successful if done early, when the land is cool and moist. In addition to the Grasses, we advise sowing 10 lbs. of mixed Clover Seed per acre. Clovers in their young state are tender in our climate, and should therefore be sown in spring, separately, being heavier in weight. MIXTURES FOR PERMANENT PASTURES FOR ONE ACRE.

Vicia villosa. ‘This annual is a native of Western Asia, and has been cultivated in this country and Europe for about fifty years. Its desirability as a forage crop has become established, and it is being cultivated each year on a more and more extensive scale. It should be sown at the rate of from four to six pecks per acre, broadcast or in drills, from August 15 to October 1, and with it as a supporting crop to raise the vines up off the ground there should be planted from two to four pecks of winter Wheat, Oats, or Rye. It should be cut while the Vetch is in full bloom. It may be planted in spring in order to supply an early green crop for soiling purposes, or in midsummer for late autumn forage. Peck, $3.25; bushel (60 lbs.), $12.00. Rye, Fall or Winter. The time for sowing is from the middle of August to the last of September. Prepare the ground as for Wheat and sow broadcast, or with a drill at the rate of one and one-half bushels per acre. This has no equal as a crop to be used for late fall and early spring pasture, and is one of the best to turn under for green manure. (56 lbs. per bush.) Per bushel, $1.75. 7O ES AUTUMN CATALOGUE, 1912. FERTILIZERS. Prices subject to change. FARQUHAR’S LAWN AND GARDEN DRESSING. The best fertilizer in the market for all garden and farm crops.
