MISS MARY E. MARTIN, FLORAL PAKE, NEW YORK. 



CROCUS. 



The winter may be long and hard, the spring cold and 

 backward, but these flowers with the Snowdrops are 

 nature's first children of spring. They will force their 

 way upward through cold and storm, and greet you on 

 the arrival of the first warm day in all 

 their glory. They look so fresh and bright, 

 and like the rainbow, they seem to say 

 dreary winter is over. They carpet the 

 ground with all colors, and you will feel 

 glad that with so little money and trouble 

 you can always have these little friends 

 with you. Plant on the lawn, 

 in borders, and along the south 

 side of the house. 



My prices on Crocus include 

 postage or expressage prepaid 

 by me.
