C. & J. Crocus are the Improved 
Strains, noted for large flowers and 
brightest colors. They are entirely 
"hardy, and like a rich, dry soil and 
sunny location. They are suitable for 
planting in beds and borders, also for 
edging in ribbon lines of any desired 
color; for planting in the grass in lawn 
or yard. Crocuses are also very highly 
valued for house culture. 
“Plant your Snowdrops in September; 
Scilla, Snowflake, Crocus too; 
If you wait until November 
These won’t wake so soon for you." 
Plant the Crocus 2p£ inches deep, in the autumn. They look especially 
well scattered over the lawn as in this picture
