BODDINGTON'S 



BULBS 



Boddington's Bulbs for Naturalizing and Acclimating in 

 Lawns, Meadows, Wild Gardens and Woodlands 



THE ART OF THE LANDSCAPE GABDENER, in laying out and beautifying the honiu grounds, is to make tlie place Nature's garden 

 all the year round, every month in the year. Some, however, overlook the fact of planting perennial bulbs, tliat is, hardy bulbs that will 

 flower from year to year, multiply and increase, so that they have the appearance of part of the landscape that has stood for years. To 

 gain immediate effect, bulbs should be planted liberally. Beautiful and natural effects may be produced by planting many of the hardier 

 kinds of spring-flowering bulbs in masses among trees, in the herbaceous border, or around and among clumps of shrubbery or even in the 

 edges of lawn or pasture. Only such bulbs as are perfectly hardy, and when once planted will flourish and increase from j'ear to year with- 

 out further care, should be employed. 



The following varieties are among the hardiest and most attractive for naturalizing in this manner :
