Bulbs, as Narcissus, Hyacinths, etc. 



CROCUSES 



All lovers of a garden are familiar with the brilliant display which 

 can be obtained from Crocuses in the opening days of spring. The 

 planting may be in groups or lines of distinct color, but in every 

 instance a massive effect should be aimed at. It only fritters away 

 the bulbs to plant singly or in small numbers, and they are so cheap 

 as to justify their lavish employment. 



CATVlASSIA esculenta (Indian Quamash). Perfectly hardy, 

 thriving in sheltered and partially shaded situa- 

 tions ; the stout flower-stalks grow from 2 to 3 feet high and bear 

 twenty or more large blue flowers, each 2 inches across; a large 

 clump in bloom is very effective. 25 cts. per doz., $1.50 per 100.
