Excerpt from Experiments With Hot-Water Treatment of Daffodils in Relation to Forcing and Field Culture A low, equable temperature always prevails, and there is an abundant supply of moisture during the growing season. Normally the rainfall ceases the last half of June. The bulbs are ready to be dug early in July; consequently maturity and drying' off coincide. These conditions are admirable for the production of clean, hard bulbs, well matured. It does not follow, however, that the stocks are dry when dug. It simply means that they are drying. The ground may not become dry before sometime in August. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
