Author Description

Excerpt from Germain's Sixth and Main: Autumn 1928 From the cool fertile valleys of the northern Pacific Coast where Germain's choice daffodils are now being grown, we have received a large supply of very fine bulbs comparable for all garden purposes to the best importations formerly received from our Holland grow ers. These bulbs have been tried and tested by us in comparison with other stocks received from various parts of the United States and we gladly recommend them to all our customers. Culture - Plant from October to January, covering the bulbs from 5 to 8 inches. They will thrive in any good garden soil. If this can be enriched with some well rotted manure or bone meal, so much the better, but do not dig in fresh manure. Plant six inches apart. They are valuable for pot culture and indoor decoration. Grown in bulb fibre any dish or jardiniere will do as no dram age is necessary. Keep fibre moist at all times, never sodden.
