ERANTHIS HYEMALIS 
(WINTER ACONITE) 
Early in the spring the golden blossoms look charming, resting 
on an emerald-green cushion of leaves and forming a striking 
contrast to the snowdrops, scillas, and chionodoxas. The foliage 
remains long after the flowers, making the plant especially 
valuable in moist situations, such as under trees, which the 
Winter Aconite enjoys and where few other flowering plants will 
thrive. Plant firmly, 2 inches deep, about fifteen bulbs to the 
square foot. 75c per doz.; $5.00 per 100. 
SNOWDROPS (Galanthus) 
Everybody knows the Snowdrop, with its little white bells com- 
ing through the snow very early in the spring—practically the 
first flower to show itself after the dreariness of winter. It is a 
wonderful bulb for naturalizimg and planting in every garden. 
Plant 2 to 3 inches deep and 1 inch apart. Can also be grown in 
pots or baskets. 
Single-flowering. $1.00 per doz.; $7.50 per 100.

$5.00 per 100.

4 inches deep and 6 inches apart. Very effective for borders and

appears. About a month later to your surprise the flower
