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 will do 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 preten- 

 tious estate. They can also be grown in 

 the house in pots, pebbles or in bulb fibre. 

 Many people plant them in tulip and hya- 

 cinth beds because they bloom and are out 

 of the way before the other bulbs begin to 

 flower. Directions for planting on page 2.

JONQUILS 



Jonquils are very popular on account of 

 their beauty, their fragrance, and the ease 

 with which they are cultivated. Somewhat 

 similar to the Narcissus, they can be planted 

 either outdoors in the garden, or window 

 box, or indoor in pots. Jonquils are per- 

 fectly hardy and after being once planted 

 will last for years. Plant three of these 

 bulbs in a pot about the 1st of October and 

 repeat every 10 days until the middle of 

 December and you will be assured of a con- 

 tinuous succession of beautiful blossoms in 

 your home throughout the entire long 

 winter.

 be imported. Don't fail to buy some of 

 these beautiful bulbs. Each, 7c; doz., 75c; 

 100, $4.50. 



FREESIAS 



These flowers are noted for their delight- 

 ful fragrance and are used a great deal by 

 florists for cut flowers. They should be 

 planted in pots and set outdoors until the 

 approach of frost and then brought into 

 the house and kept in a warm room or 

 conservatory.
