SllOWdrOpS (Galanthus) 



Snowdrops are the first blossoms of Spring, 

 and can be planted in groups and left undis- 

 turbed for years, coming forth annually with

 They are also exquisitely pretty 

 planted singly in the grass, their 

 foliage being sufficiently ma- 

 tured to cut without injury to 

 the bulbs by the time the lawn 

 is ready to be mown.
