Rock Garden and Border 



FRITIL- 

 LARIA 



(Checkered Lily) 



Maleagris Mixed The 



large drooping bell- 

 shaped flowers are 

 oddly splashed and 

 striped. The plants 

 grow only about 12 

 inches tall. Fine 

 for rock gardens, 

 for naturalizing, 

 and for the border. 

 Plant two inches 

 deep and six inches 

 apart. 50c per 

 dozen; $3.25 

 per 100. 



The black centers of Ornithogalum are in striking contrast to the pure white petals. 

 A group of them, either indoors or outdoors, makes a pleasing picture. 



MUSCARI 



(Grape Hyacinth) 



Every garden should have a few of these little plants with their straight slender spikes of tiny 

 "grapes." They are very hardy, will grow almost anywhere, and increase rapidly, flowering more freely as 

 they become established. For a charming picture, plant them in masses among the late flowering tulips, 

 especially the pinks and the yellows. 



Set the bulbs two to three inches deep in any ordinary garden soil. For indoor flowering four to six 

 bulbs in a five-inch pot will make a fine showing. 

 Heavenly Blue. "Heavenly" in fragrance as well as in color. The largest flowered and most desirable of 



all the Muscari. Bright sky blue. Height about eight inches. 35c per dozen; $2.00 per 100. 



ORNITHOGALUM 



Arabicum Tall spikes bear loose clusters of cheery star-shaped blossoms, pure white with black 

 centers. These bulb flowers are very hardy in the South and other mild climates, but they should be 

 given protection when planted outdoors in the North. Culture in the house is about the same as for 

 Hyacinths. 80c per dozen; $5.50 per 100. 



RANUNCULUS 



These little spring flowering bulbs produce attractive double or semi-double flowers on stems about 

 nine inches high. They come in a wide range of colors — ^bright crimsons, scarlet, orange, pink, yellow, 

 and white. 



Ranunculus prefers a sunny situation and a well drained soil. Plant the bulbs two inches deep and six 

 inches apart with the odd finger-like projections pointing downward. The bulbs may be soaked in water 

 beforehand. October and November are the best planting months. l doz. 100

colors. The exquisite semi-double flowers all show attractive black centers $0.70 $5.00
