Ranunculus 
8977 Tccolotc Gisiri'tS (See colored illustration on back cover.) 
The largest and most magnificent strain ever offered. Giant double and 
semi-double flowers, 3 in. and more across, are freely borne on strong 
stems 12 to 15 in. long. Our mixture contains a wonderful range of colors 
—yellows, from straw through all shades to deep golden yellow; reds, 
including dark crimson, scarlet, orange-red and all other shades of red; 
orange, pink, many ringed and tipped with a deeper color—in fact, every 
desired color is included. Do best in a shady location and in moderately 
rich soil. Fine for cutting. Not reliably hardy north of Washington, D. C., 
except in warm, sheltered locations where they can be kept fairly dry and 
protected. Splendid for growing in frames or pots. The roots resemble 
tiny clumps of Dahlias. Set them, claws downward, 2 in. deep and 4 to 
6 in. apart. If grown in pots, plant 6 to 8 roots in a 6-inch pot or bulb 
pan which should be 6 to 8 in. deep; cover roots with one inch of soil, 
and allow 2 inches of space between bulbs. Keep in a cool place for several 
months to root, then keep growing cool, not over 50° temperature. 
3 for 15^; 12 for 50^; 100 for $3.50.
