WINTER ACONITE. (Natural Size.) 
Winter Aconite. 
The little Aconite, which blooms earlier than the Snowdrop, is 
invariably the first flower in the garden to greet us in the New Year, 
and should always be grown freely in sunny positions near the 
house, or walks,' for the pretty and ever welcome display they 
make with their golden yellow flowers so early in the season. They 
are extremely hardy, seem to thrive in any soil or position, and 
planted in large permanent clumps or patches, they will grow 
freely under overhanging shrubs or trees, and may be left in the 
ground for years without injury.
