Last year, we offered our customers a new race of Giant Crocus which we called the IDEAL 
CROCUS. While we have not increased the price over that formerly asked for the older strains, 
we can truthfully say that our customers now receive double value. Plant them this year, you 
will marvel at the flowers early next spring. 
These new Crocus are so far superior in size and beauty we feel sure that the older 
strains will disappear from the market as soon as the Ideal Crocus can be produced in sufficient 
quantities. The bulbs offered here are Top Size, grown in our own Holland Nurseries. Even 
the Mixed Collections are made up of named varieties.

Fritillaria Imperialis 
(Crown Imperial) 
This unique and most attractive flower derives most of its name from the crown-shaped flower, 
as shown in the illustration. The original species grew wild in English meadows, and the present 
form is excellent for naturalizing as well as for the garden or border. It blooms in May and 
June. Children admire the pearly drops of nectar found in the chalice. 
For best results, the bulbs should be planted soon after Labor Day. 
ORANGE. 35c each; #3.50 per doz. 
RED. 35c each; #3.50 per doz. 
YELLOW. 75c each; #7.50 per doz.
