remurus 
Three-Year>Old Seedlings 
During the past few years there have been many requests for Eremurus 
seed and young plants. The seed of Eremurus is difficult to germinate; we, 
therefore, never offered it because it was bound to lead to disappointment. 
Seedling roots, one or two years old, are too small for the average person 
to care for, but we are now able to offer some fine roots which are three 
years old. We know these will grow without trouble and surely are the same 
varieties as offered above. It will be well worth your while to plant a few 
of these healthy young roots for growing on.

Plant Bulbs Immediately Upon Receipt 
These produce about two weeks before the Crocus are in bloom, little 
yellow flowers like Buttercups about 3 inches above the ground, with set¬ 
tings of fine green, frilled collars which never seem to mind the worst of 
weather conditions. Will thrive under trees where few other plants can hold 
their own. They seed themselves freely and colonies from self-sown seed 
are soon formed. Plant at once upon receipt, firmly, 2 inches deep in shade 
or full sun, about 18 bulbs to a square foot.

Without doubt the most sweetly scented flower grown; a single bloom 
permeates the living-room with its delicate perfume. Although they are 
quite popular and very easily raised, we suggest the following treatment: 
Procure the bulbs as early as piossible and plant them in August, 6 to 25 
bulbs for a single pan. The soil should be a mixture of goc^ loom. The 
bulbs planted early, say August and September, must be placed outdoors 
until cold weather sets in; must be regularly watered and kept growing all 
the time. In November, before frosts appear, the pots should be placed 
in the window of a cool room.
