FLOWER GARDENS The planting of spring flowering bulbs such as anemones, crocus, cyclamen, daffodils, tritonia, ranunculus, tulips and many others, should take place now. During March and April soil conditions are sometimes extremely dry. It is therefore often necessary to water the beds before transplanting. However if this is necesary it is also very wise to choose a dull day for the occasion. Make good sowings of all hardy annuals and perennias for planting at this season. Plant out pansies, dianthus, iceland poppies, godetia.
