Corydalis Bulbosa 
A very graceful little bulb for massing in front of the border under 
shrubs, or clump in the rock garden. Should be planted in groups of a 
dozen or more bulbs for best effect. In April the racemes of attractive rosy 
purple flowers with glaucous foliage make a brilliant and extremely showy 
patch of color. Growth prostrate, not over 3 inches. 
Doz. $2.30, 100 $15.00 
Colchicum - Meadow Saffron 
(Giant Autumn-Flowering Crocus) 
Colchicum are autumn-flowering bulbs with large Crocus-like blossoms 
which appear during the months of September and October, without foliage. 
The foliage, however, appears early in the spring about the same time the 
Tulips and Hyacinths are in bloom and disappears in June. They are espe- 
cially recommended for planting between the taller growing rock plants 
such as Cerastium, Vinca, Pachysandra, and the various Sedums, where 
their bold, checkered Crocus-like blossoms are seen to the best advantage 
Blooming in September and October when flowers in the rockery are scarce, 
they are especially valuable. They may also be planted in the open woods 
or in naturalistic plantings of any sort. The bulbs, if kept indoors, will 
bloom during September and October in the window without any earth or 
water and after blooming, the bulbs may be planted in early November 
outdoors, and will not suffer in the least.

CGamassia 
(Hardy) 
There are few bulbous plants that meet climatic or soil conditions better 
or give a more attractive bloom. They are hardy without protection, and 
thrive either under ordinary garden conditions or when naturalized in open, 
moist woods or in not too dense a grassy growth. The flower stems are 2 to 
4 feet high with as many as a hundred star-shaped flowers measuring 11/2 
inches across and flowering in long succession.

places, as well as in the hardest, driest clay. 
Esculenta Doz. $1.00, 100 $6.75

These are charming woodland plants, producing in early April, small Lily- 
like flowers of which the colors run in delicate tints of white, pink, cream, 
bright yellow and rose. They thrive in wooded places under shrubs and in 
shaded corners or crevices of the rockery. 
Their beauty is enhanced by their richly mottled leaves. All grow about 
6 to 7 inches high.
