THE HERALDS OF SPRING 
By including all the varieties in this classification, you will have bloom in your garden from 
February until tulip-time. This type of bloom lends itself best to mass planting under shrubs 
in the rock-garden, and in clumps in the border. They soon naturalize themselves and spread freely.
