‘Giant Tecolote Ranunculus — 99 ae 
By. far the most magnificent strain of Ranunculus ever offered to the 
public. Flowers very double, blended with semi-double. Centers are 
usually light green. Our mixture contains a beautiful range of colors. 
Do not confuse them with the cheap kinds offered at bargain prices. 
All sizes as offered are strictly up to standard. 
Culture: In warm climates, Ranunculus may be planted in early fall § 
for winter bloom and from that time in succession until spring. For pot | 
grown winter flowers, plant early in fall, water thoroughly and plunge | 
in ashes or sand until they are sprouted. 
The bulbs resemble tiny clumps with finger-like projections which 
should be planted pointed down. Soak the bulbs in water 2 hours and +} 
cover about 2 inches deep, 4 to 6 inches apart, and if soilis at allheavy, {| 
cover with peat moss in order that leaves will push through readily | 
without heaving the soil. A rich under-soil is desirable, but use no 
fresh fertilizer around the bulb. Plant in a partly shaded location, par- 
ticularly if grown for blooming in late spring or early summer, otherwise 
if planted in locations like the Phoenix, Arizona, valley during the fall 
months, in a sunny, open location. An abundance of water and good 
drainage are essential.
