Spring Flowering Crocus 
Including New Hybrid Varieties 
As edgings to beds—and bordering walks 
—or as undergrowth among tulips, hyacinth, 
daffodils, etc., they are very effective as the 
flowers are over when the other bulbs be- 
gin blooming. 
Crocus are also easily flowered in the 
house in winter, grown in pots and pans 
of soil. For instructions see leaflet “‘How 
to Grow Bulbs’ sent when requested. 
We offer only the larger bulbs which 
produce more and larger flowers.

Plant in deep pots, for the new roots which form below the others go deep; plant
