AUTUMN Catalogue, 1908. 



ANEMONES. 



NONE of the spring flowers surpass the Anemone in brilliancy of color and profusion of bloom. 

 They are very lasting, and have of recent years become very popular for cut-flower use and 

 for table decorations. The florists now buy thousands of them to force. Plant in October or 

 November, six roots in a six-inch pot or bulb pan, covering them one inch. They may be kept in 

 a cellar or frame protected from frost until spring, when they may be placed in the greenhouse or 

 window to bloom.
