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 complete. 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 obtained from early planting.
