MISCELLANEOUS BULBS AND m Agapanthus. ANEMONES. These charming hardy spring flower are becoming better known and mor popular as a garden flower. Both double and single are equally de- sirable, and no garden should be without them. They are suit- able for pot or border culture, and when planted in masses are most effective. They succeed best in a light, rich, well- drained loam. Plant in October or November, or as soon as the ground can be worked in the spring. If planted in the autumn, they should be covered with leaves, straw or long manure on the ap proach of winter. For pot culture, fill with any rich, porous compost, with good drainage, planting 4 roots in a 5-inc pot; place in a cold frame, or any moder ately cool situation, giving very little water until the plants appear, then remove to the greenhouse or sitting-room window.
