BEDDING HYACINTHS 
In addition to a wide range of colors varying from 
rieh red to dark purple, Hyacinths are noted for 
their delightful fragrance. Plant them in broad 
masses or use them in small groups combined with 
daffodils. 
Set the bulbs 5 to 6 inches deep in rich, well- 
drained soil. 
CROCUSES 
The chalice-like blooms of the Crocus family are 
among the earliest evidences of approaching spring. 
The dainty, tapering buds expand during the sunny 
hours each day and close at night, as if to protect 
themselves from Jack Frost. 
Plant Crocuses 4 inches deep, setting the bulbs 
2 to 3 inches apart if you wish to have a colorful mass. 
AMERICAN-GROWN DAFFODILS 
The showy blooms of the Dutch Iris are not as widely cultivated as they 
deserve to be. They make colorful masses in the garden and are delightful 
cut-llowers. Their blooming season follows that of the tulips and they can 
be grown without any special care. 
Plant bulbs of Dutch Iris in the early fall, preferably before November. 
Set the bulbs 3 to 4 inches deep in well-drained soil. Some gardeners reset 
the bulbs every two years, but it will be found advisable to dig them up each 
year and dry them thoroughly belore storing them for the summer months.

The cheery yellow Daffodils are among the very first flowers to 
bloom in the spring, and no modern garden should be without gener¬ 
ous masses of them. Some of the finest varieties are now available 
at reasonable prices. 
Plant them in broad masses in your borders, or naturalize them 
among shrubs or in a wild garden. You will find it interesting and 
worth while to plant clumps of six or more among your perennials. 
Daffodils should be planted about 6 inches deep. It is not necessary 
to take up the bulbs every year, but if you would have large flowers, 
it is advisable to divide them at least every two years. Dig the bulbs 
after the foliage has turned yellow, and dry them off thoroughly 
before storing them for the summer months.
