MISCELLANEOUS BULBS 



CROCUS 



These are beautiful cup-shaped flowers, whose bright 

 colors shoot up almost before the snow has disappeared. 

 They are very hardy and do well anywhere, in clumps 

 under the shrubs or trees, in the border, in beds, or 

 scattered in places about the yard or lawn. Being the 

 first flower of Spring they are well deserving of a 

 place in the humblest garden and upon the most pre- 

 tentious estate. They can also be grown in the house 

 in pots, pebbles or in bulb fibre. Many people plant 

 them in tulip and hyacinth beds because they bloom 

 and are out of the way before the other bulbs begin to 

 flower. Directions for planting on pag
