NATURALIZING As there are many bulbs and bulbous plants for growing wild 
it would be impossible to plant some of every kind unless you 
possess a very large garden. On the other hand, if only a few different varieties are planted 
the effect will be rather dull. The more, varieties seen together, the more, beautiful the 
effect. To make the effect as picturesque as possible, even in small gardens, we offer here 
a superb mixture. It consists only of those varieties which are approximately of the same 
height and flower both in sunny and shady positions. The period of flowering will last for 
some months. As we usually sell enormous quantities of this mixture of wild bulbs, 
we offer them at a much reduced 
price. Per 500 8 5. —, per 25 $ — .35
