Spring Crocus 
SpAin<j, fcloo+nuuj, CROCUS 
Giant spring-blooming Crocus. They are fre¬ 
quently among the first flowers to appear in the 
spring, coming only a few days after the snow dis¬ 
appears. They are at their best when scattered over 
a lawn, or when planted in rows, as a border. The 
bulbs are entirely hardy. In yellow, white, blue and 
striped. 50 for 93c; 100 for #1.79. 
SCILLA SIBIRICA 
They are invaluable for edgings, borders or 
massed in flower beds; hardy and very satisfactory. 
Height about 4 inches. 
SCILLA SIBIRICA. Bright blue. 
SCILLA SIBIRICA ALBA. Pure white, same habit 
as above. 
25 for 93c; 50 for #1.69. 
GRAPE HYACINTH 
(Muscari) 
The foliage of this plant is very similar 
to that of Scilla, but the flowers are of 
entirely different form—grapelike clusters 
closely set, and are wonderful cut flowers. 
Splendid for naturalizing. Height 1? 
inches. 
ALBA. White. 
HEAVENLY BLUE. 
Scilla Sibirica 
COLCHICUM 
We are offering this year a new and interesting novelty. The flowers 
of this type are large, and they bloom during the months of September 
and October. They produce blossoms resembling in their shape the well- 
known Crocus. The foliage appears early >'n the spring, and dies down 
during the month of June. The bulbs should be planted during the month 
of August for outside blooming. However, they may also be kept indoors 
where they will bloom on a window ledge, or on the mantelpiece, without 
either earth or water, producing a very unique and startling effect. This 
indoor blooming does not injure the bulbs in the least, and they may be 
planted outdoors afterwards. Try this novelty.

Mixed or straight colors, 25 for 87c;

All varieties of Scilla Campanulata are splendid 
for naturalizing because they will flower in shady 
places. All have bells like small Hyacinths, form¬ 
ing long and graceful spikes. Height 15 inches.

CROCUS 
These Crocus are different from the 
Spring-Blooming Dutch Crocus, and bloom 
during the month of October, while their 
foliage and seed pods as well, are produced 
the following spring. They are perfectly 
hardy, and establish and multiply easily. 
Order early. They should be planted in 
September. Try some of these varieties 
for something entirely different. 
SATIVUS. Large, purplish lilac flowers feathered 
violet with showy orange stigmata. Sweetly 
scented. 6 for 29c; 12 for 49c; 25 for 98c. 
SPECIOSUS. Flowers are large, bright blue, and 
beautifully veined with a bright yellow throat. 
This variety deserves to be planted plentifully. 
6 for 29c; 12 for 49c; 25 for 98c. 
ZONATUS. Rose-lilac and very free bloomer. 
Another very satisfactory variety. This variety

through blooming they may then be planted in 
the garden where- they will establish themselves 
without effort. 6 for 29c; 12 for 49c; 25 for 98c.
