Ranunculus 



RANUNCULtTS. 



These beautiful dwarf-flowering' 

 bulbs delight in a cool, moist atmos- 

 phere and will repay extra care in cul-' 

 ^x' tivation. Thecuiious, tooth-like bulbs 

 ^ may be kept out of the ground without 

 injury for a long lime, and if planted in 

 spring in a cool, shady situation will 

 generally give satisfactory results. 

 They are also desirable for pot culture 

 and for growing in frames in the 

 spring.

SNOWDROPS tGalanthus). 



The charming Snowdi'op is the first of all flowers to herald the 

 approach of spring. It can frequently be seen in bloom when the 

 ground is white with snow, as it takes every advantage, and hastens 

 to display its graceful snow-white bells before the vidnter has disap- 

 peared. In conjunction with Chionodoxas and Scillas, a matchless 

 effect can be produced. As the bulbs are small, they should be 

 planted liberally in order to obtain immediate results. Banks, grassy 

 slopes, edging, or rock-work will suit all of these bulbs. They should 

 not be disturbed often if a fine display is desired.
