MEADOW SAFFRON 
Plant in August-September, bloom within a few weeks. 
T HESE autumn-flowering bulbs are among the most beautiful of woodland flowers and are at home in either lawn 
or rock garden. The large crocus-like blossoms appear after the foliage has died down and they maintain a suc¬ 
cession of flowers from September till November. We recommend them strongly for planting in grass, in which their 
delightful flowers may be seen at their best. You will consider them particularly valuable for their permanency. 
They are also very interesting as a house plant as they will flower in a dry state. They are useful placed in bowls 
with pebbles when they will come into flower within two weeks.
