BULB BOWLS.
If a small, light watering-can is not available for watering indoor plants and bowls of bulbs an old teapot serves instead. If the bulb bowls are so full of fibre that the water may easily overflow, it is advisable to use a small funnel and press it well down into the fibre before pouring water into it. A piece of blotting-paper is better than a duster for quickly wiping up any drops of water that may fall on polished tables or other furniture on which the bowls stand.
