HART & VICK’S CROCUS 
Golden yellow Crocus peeping through the lawn remind us that 
spring is right at hand. These flowers give the best effect when the bulbs 
are scattered carelessly over the lawn and then slipped under the sod 
where they fall. This gives a natural effect and is the most desirable 
way for using Crocus, although they are effective when used to border 
walks or grown in masses under shrubs and evergreens. 
Named varieties, 50 cts. per dozen; $3 per 100; $27.50 per 1000 
Golden Yellow. Extra-large golden yellow blooms. Literally a carpet 
of gold. 
King of the Blues. Extremely large light blue flowers. 
Queen of the Blues. Giant porcelain-blue flowers in abundance. 
Mont Blanc. Extra-fine pure white. Blooms unusually large. 
Sir Walter Scott. White, striped with pale lilac.

Fall-Flowering Crocus “Zonatus” 
A species of Crocus that blooms in autumn. It is a novelty for the 
rock-garden or for borders. It may also be bloomed indoors, like Paper- 
White Narcissus, by setting in bowls of water and pebbles. The flower 
is rosy lilac, with yellow center and a zone of orange. 50 cts. per dozen; 
$3 per 100. 
TULIPS FOR ROCK-GARDENS 
These four varieties can be used to distinct ad¬ 
vantage in modern rock-gardens. They are low 
growers, free bloomers, and perfectly hardy. 
Clusiana. The “candy-stick” Tulip, so called be¬ 
cause of the markings of cherry-rose and white, 
and the long form of the flower. Should be planted 
freely for best effect. Height, 10 inches. 95 cts. 
per dozen; $7 per 100. 
Eichleri. Fiery scarlet with glistening black center. 
Height, 11 inches. $1 per dozen; $7.75 per 100.
