Ranunculus. 



A garden or greenhouse plant, also suitable for 

 house culture. It is not quite hardy enough to bear 

 planting in the garden in the fall, but 

 as the bulbs can be kept in a dry 

 state until spring, they may then be 

 planted and will produce an abund- 

 ance of flowers. Give them a rather 

 shady place in the garden.

The little nodding 

 flowers of this well- 

 known plant are gen-

 pear in spring, often 

 rearing their delicate 

 heads above a light 

 covering of snow in 

 early March. They 

 are suitable for pot 

 culture, but are most 

 effective when plant- 

 ed in clumps on the 

 lawn. Plant in Sep- 

 tember or October, 

 Any good garden soil 

 will suit them. They 

 require no protection 

 being quite hardy.
