ARE YOUR BULBS LIFTING?
Many gardeners who realize the necessity for refirming lifted roses, shrubs and fibrous-rooted, bedding plants, don’t realize that a similar attention may be neo.-ssury to bulbs. Tulips in particular are very liable to be lifted by frost. • Sometimes the bulbs appear on the surface, so marked is the lifting motion. . Bulbs that have been lifted in this way can obviously do no good. Lose no time in replanting, using a trowel and handling the bulbs with particular care if roots are emerging from the basal plate.
