Ranunculus 



These beautiful flowering bulbs delight in a cool, moist atmosphere, and will repay 

 extra care in cultivation. The curious tooth-like bulb may be kept out of the ground 

 without injury for a long time, and if planted in spring in a cool, shady situation will 

 generally give satisfactory results. They are also desirable for pot culture and for grow- 

 ing in frames in spring. Also suitable for rockeries in mild climates. 

 Double French Hybrids. A splendid mixture containing all the brilliant colors 



for which this strain is famous. 75 cts. per doz.; $5.50 per 100; $40.00 per 1000. 

 Florentine. Very similar to the French mixed in colors, but more desirable because 



of its very large flowers. 85 cts. per doz.; $6.00 per 100; $50.00 per 1000. 



ScillaS (Squills) 

 (Excellent for Rock Gardens) 



Sibirica. One of the prettiest of early spring-blooming bulbs, of dwarf habit, with 

 sprays of exquisite rich blue flowers. Grown in masses, in conjunction with Crocus, 

 particularly the yellow variety, Chionodoxas and Snowdrops, the effect is charming. 

 Mammoth bulbs 75 cts. per doz.; $5.00 per 100; $40.00 per 1000. 



Campanulata {Spanish Blue-bell, or Wood 

 Hyacinth). A beautiful spring-flowering 

 bulb; spikes of bell-shaped flowers, fine for 

 naturalizing in the woods, etc.; perfectly 

 hardy and requires no further care when 

 once planted. This is one of the few 

 things that will thrive under pine trees. 

 We offer them in separate colors and in 

 mixture as under.

 IMuSCari (Grape Hyacinths) 



One of the prettiest of early spring flower- 

 ing bulbs, growing about 6 inches high, and 



throwing up numerous spikes of flowers, 



which resemble a miniature inverted bunch 



of grapes. They are perfectly hardy, and 



for this reason they are largely used for 



naturalizing, especially amongst the grass 



and in woods or other shady places, also in 



the Rock Garden.

 livened by white lacing at the aperture

 $30.00 per 1000. 



White Grape Hyacinths (Pearls of 

 Spam). Pure white. 75 cts. per . doz.; 

 $5.00 per 100; $40.00 per 1000.

 much larger spikes of flowers than the ordinary Blue Grape Hyacinth.

 per 1000.
