Giant Crocus. 
Qiant Flowering Crocus 
One of our earliest spring flowers. Beautiful and a universal favorite. A bed, 
border or some clumps of these are essential to make the flower garden com¬ 
plete. To be had in the highest perfection, they should be planted 3 inches deep, 
in a deep, rich, sandy loam, and in a sunny location though they will succeed 
in almost any soil or situation. When planted in connection with Chionodoxa, 
Snowdrops or Scilla they are very effective. They also may be grown indoors 
in bulb pans, etc., as recommended for Hyacinths. Best results outside are ob- 
tained from early planting.
