CROCUS 



One of the earliest spring-flowering bulbs. They produce fine effects, if 

 planted promiscuously throughout the lawn or in shrubbery, especially if 

 combined with Scilla Sibirica, snowdrops or any of the early-flowering bulbs. 

 They are likewise attractive when planted in rows of various colors in bor- 

 ders. Plant 2 inches deep, and at the same time you plant other varieties 

 of bulbs outdoors. The named sorts are also very desirable for growing 

 indoors for winter bloom, six or more bulbs may be planted in a pot or pan, 

 placed in a cool situation, and when leaves appear they may be taken in- 

 doors. The bulbs may also be flowered in bowls or saucers in water with 

 pebbles or may be grown in moss in balls, baskets, etc. For this purpose use the Mammoth Bulbs.
