Olds’ Miscellaneous Bulbs 
THE FIRST FLOWERS OF SPRING 

Olds’ Giant Crocus. 
These bright and fascinating little flowers are the earliest 
of all. The snow has hardiy disappeared before they 
thrust their pretty blossoms through the cold ground in 
answer to the first warm sunshine of spring. 
Although most showy when massed in big beds or planted 
in rows of distinct colors, they are also very effective 
sprinkled over the lawn and among the trees and shrubbery. 
We offer the following colors of Crocus:
