CROCUS, AUTUMN-FLOWERING 
Crocus species which bloom in the Fall are not often seen in the Garden. Many 
people are surprised when they see these beautiful flowers blooming in the end of 
September and can hardly believe this Spring effect can be had with little expense 
and effort. The bulbs are extremely hardy and vigorous and they naturalize 
readily in the lawn, border or rock garden, coming up each year in greater quan¬ 
tity. They have their home in Southern Italy, Malta, Sicily, the Alps and the 
slopes of Luguria. In March the Heather above Venice is full of the variety 
Versicolor and there are no two colors alike. Planted in the early Fall, 4-5 inches 
deep, sure success is assured.
