THE DINGEE & CONARD CO., WEST GROVE, PA. 



GOHARP 



CHIS ancient and aristocratic family, with its long line of distinguislied posterity, is so well and favor- 

 ably known that descriptions are unnecessary, even were it possible for the pen or brush to portray 

 their almost savage beauty. Ttey are hardy and of rapid and vigorous growth, and a bed of them, 

 once established, becomes a permanent fixture that will long survive as a wondrous and attractive fea- 

 ture of the garden. They succeed best if given a good light, dry soil and a sheltered location, such as the 

 proximity of shrubbery or trees (if not too large and dense), or snug nooks, such as the angles of build- 

 ings usually afford. The bulbs should be planted about 6 to 8 inches deep. The varieties offered below 

 are among the finest types, carefully selected with reference to the demands for general cultivatioj. 



4^Remember, the Bulbs offered are large, sound and solid and are far superior to the small 

 bnlibs frequently offered. All our bulbs are sure to grow and bloom.
