Early Spring-Flowering Bulbs for Naturalizing 
If your lawn and grounds are a pleasure to you during the summer and fall, why not extend this pleasure 
by beginning a month or so earlier in the spring than you have been doing? This can easily be managed by 
naturalizing some bulbs, such as Crocuses, Narcissi, Daffodils, and Jonquils. Crocuses should be planted 
in the open where they will get full sunlight, and they are most effective when scattered over the lawn 
and not planted in straight rows. Poet’s Narcissi can be planted in clumps in corners and, like Jonquils, 
can be used for edging beds. Daffodils prefer some shade and a good deep soil but will grow almost any¬ 
where. If you plant Crocuses, Poet’s Narcissi, and Daffodils you can have a range of colors from silvery 
white and shades of yellow to deepest blues to brighten the early spring. Start this season.
