Dingee Winter-Blooming 

 Freesias 



One of the most popular winter-blooming 

 bulbs, growing- well in ordinary soil. One 

 of the easiest of wintel-blooming bulbs , 

 for window culture. The color is pure [

Freesias should be planted early for 

 the best results — the earlier the better.

 est early in the season. We have these
