Bulbs for Naturalizing and Acclimating in Lawns 

 Meadows, Wild Gardens and Woodlands 



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

 all the year round, every month in the year. Some, however, overlook the fact of planting perennial bulbs, that 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 m:iy 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 year to year 

 without further care, should be employed. 



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