CROCUS 



Crocuses, among the first flowers to bloom in the

 one, especially when planted amid the grass in 

 lawns, their bright flowers producing a fine contrast. 

 They may also be planted among other spring- 

 flowering bulbs, such as Tulips, Hyacinths, and 

 Narcissi, making a splendid show before the other 

 varieties begin to bloom.
