AUTUMN CATALOGUE, 1916. 



25 



CROCUSES. 



THE bulbs should be set three inches deep, and should be planted in October or early in November to insure success. They are very 

 effective when combined with Snowdrops, Scilla Siberica, Chionodoxa Lucilise, Daffodils, and other Spring flowers. For a natural 

 effect they can be scattered in handfuls and planted where they lie. Crocuses may also be grown indoors either in pots or bulb pans in 

 loam, or in dishes filled with wet moss in which the bulbs are set closely, half an inch below the surface. 



If by Parcel Post add postage at zone rates; weighty lbs. per loo.
