Those interested in forming permanent natural plantations should not over- 

 look the Snowdrops and Scillas. There are no better subjects for such work. 

 The former peer 

 through the ground 

 even while the snow- 

 covers it, and they 

 are closely followed 

 by the bright blue 

 Scilla Siberica, the 

 earliest of i ts genus ; 

 this in turn, being 

 succeeded by t h e 

 larger hyacinth-like 

 spikes of Scilla 

 Campa n ulata in 

 blue, white and deli- 

 cate rose, commonly 

 known .is the Wood 

 Hvacinth. 



GORGEOUS dwarf flowers, easily grown in pots for winter blooming, or in cold frames 

 for spring. Eight roots may be potted in a 6-inch bulb-pan ; they should be covered 

 one inch. The colors include shades of white, yellow, crimson, and purple, some being al- 

 most black. They are very effective for decoration, either as pot plants or cut.
