PRICE: 40c per doz.; $3.00 per 100; $28.00 per 1000 
Last year, we offered our customers a new race of Giant Crocus which we called the IDEAL CROCUS. 
While we have not increased the price over that formerly asked for the older strains, we can truthfully say 
that our customers now receive double value. Plant them this year, you will marvel at the flowers early next 
spring. These new Crocus are so far superior in size and beauty we feel sure that the older strains will dis- 
appear from the market as soon as the Ideal 
Crocus can be produced in sufficient quantities. 
The bulbs offered here are Top Size, grown in 
our own Holland Nurseries. Even the Mixed 
Collections are made up of the named varieties.

CANDIDUM OR MADONNA LILY 
LILIUM CANDIDUM 
This is the exquisite Madonna Lily, which produces 
a large mass of snow-white flowers on straight stems. 
Plant these bulbs in the open in September or October, 
and protect them well from frost, as they are not ex¬ 
tremely hardy, and during May or June you will have 
an abundance of flowers. Can also be planted in pots 
and by putting them in a cold frame for three months, 
well protected, then taking them into a greenhouse, the 
same success will be yours.

100 .

FRITILLARIA IMPERIALS 
9mfiesvicdii 
(Crown Imperial) 
This unique and most attractive flow¬ 
er derives most of its name from the 
crown-shaped flower, as shown in the 
illustration. The original species grew 
wild in English meadows, and the pres¬ 
ent form is excellent for naturalizing as 
well as for the garden or border. It 
blooms in May and June. Children ad¬ 
mire the pearly drops of nectar found 
in the chalice. 
For best results, the bulbs should be 
planted during September.
