well drained soil, be planted 6 to 8 inches deep, 
with a little sand around each bulb to keep 
from rotting. They should be grown 3 or 4 
years and then transplanted, preferably in Septem¬ 
ber, and set at once to prevent drying out. It is well 
to plant them among evergreens or plants with 
heavy foliage, and cover the beds with leaves or 
like protection during the winter. Our bulbs can 
be supplied in September or October, or early spring.

INDIVIDUAL SPECIMEN TREES 
Good sized trees from 5 to 10 feet high may be 
planted to give quick effect if desired. Evergreens 
should have a good ball of dirt and the burlap left 
on when planted. Hardwoods such as Maple, Elm, 
Ash, etc., can be set without a ball of dirt if planted 
in the early spring or late fall when the leaves are 
off. If a circle or space around each tree is kept 
free of grass and kept cultivated it is of advantage, 
and adds to the appearance of the grounds. Both 
evergreen and hardwood trees may be pruned to 
make thick bushy specimens. They should have 
plenty ot room and light to give the best results.
