and divide by 2. For example, a 10x6 ft. oval

S ft. in diameter.

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. 50c per doz.; $3.50 per 100. 
Speciosus. Flowers are large, bright blue and beautifully veined with a bright yellow 
throat. This variety deserves to be planted plentifully. 50c per doz.; $3.50 per 100. 
Zonatus. Rose-lilac and a very free bloomer. Another very satisfactory variety. This 
variety may be used for indoor blooming. They will bloom dry without soil or water. 
After they are through blooming they may then be planted in the garden where 
they will establish themselves without effort. 50c per doz.; $3.50 per 100.
