Dreer's Hardy Flowering Bulbs 



That Bloom During Spring, Summer, & Fall 



Hardy bulbs bring to our gardens a wealth of colorful flowers. All of them are easy to 

 grow and those which flower during the early spring are particularly welcome. Though 

 they are small they are truly beautiful. Take for example Iris reticulata that greets us 

 soon after the last of the snow has melted. Scillas and Grape Hyacinths continue the 

 procession with Anemone, Calochortus, Camassia, Erythronium, Leucojum, Ranunculus 

 and the Dutch, Spanish, and English Iris providing a succession that leads up to the summer- 

 flowering plants. For blooming this fall plant Colchicum and Sternbergia without delay.
