Growing Bulbs in Moss Fibre.

This extremely interesting and cleanly process of growing spring and other lowering bulbs is becoming very popular in England, and only requires to be better known to be largely followed in New

Zealand. The bulbs, once planted in this manner, require very little attention, ■need no drainage, ami given a sufficiency of air and light will (lower profusely in any ordinary living room. They are a source of increasing interest to watch their development from the time they commence growing right on to tin* flower-

ing period, and when in full bloom call forth exclamations of surprise and de light. Ladies who object to tin* ordinary flower-pot, and sometimes forget the necessary watering, will find in this method that they may select any ornamental bowl their fancy dictates, and having planted and started their bulbs in tin* fibre and shell the after attention is reduced to the minimum, and all is clean and in keeping with its surroundings.
