ENGLISH BULBS.

About once a week someone makes an inquiry about English bulbs, of which something has been written more than once in the Spectator. Full details were given in the issue of July 7th, but the publication has not arrested the stream of questions. The Ministry of Agriculture very kindly gave me addresses of bulb growers in four districts of Britain. I have no option but to repeat them. They are : (1) The Secretary, The Spalding and District Bulb Growers Association, Penny- gate, Spalding ; (2) Marsh Farm, Twickenham, Middlesex ; (3) Mr. H. Abiss, The County Hall, Truro, Cornwall ; (4) Major Smith Dorrien, Tresco, Isle of Scilly.
