About

The Curious History of the Bulb Vase covers the 300-year history of growing bulbs on water, primarily the hyacinth, but many other bulbs are included.

The thing is...

... there is a lot more to bulbs than planting them in the ground. Forcing the growth of virtually any bulb on water is something of an art form that is explained fully in the book. Many surprises are reserved for the book, of course!

What Bulbs?

The amount of bulbs that can be forced on water is amazing: hyacinth, muscari, tulips, crocus, daffodils, amaryllis, snowdrops, leucojum, iris, scilla, allium, and even acorns, radishes, avocado and sweet potatoes have all been grown successfully on glass and can give many days of pleasure.
