These charming hardy spring flowers are becoming better known and more popular 

 as a garden flower. Both double and single are equally desirable, and no garden 

 should be without them. They are suitable for pot or border culture, and when 

 planted in masses are most effective. They succeed best in a light, rich, well-drained 

 loam. Plant in October or November, or as soon as tht ground can be 

 worked in the spring. If planted in the autumn, they should be covered 

 with leaves, straw, or long manure on the approach of winter. For pot cul- 

 ture, fill with any rich, porous compost, with good drainage, planting 4 roots 

 in a 5-inch pot; place in a cold-frame, or any moderately cool situation, 

 giving very little water until the plants appear, then remove to the greenhouse 

 or sitting-room window.
