RANUNCULUS 
Half hardy in northern climates, should be planted as early 
as possible in spring. May be started in a cool place, in pots, 
later to be set out when danger of freezing is over. Early 
February planting is recommended in climates where there is 
some light freezes. Where there is no danger of freezing, 
planting is best done in late fall. Plant 2 inches deep, about 
4 inches apart, being sure to plant the bulbs with the ‘’claws’”’ 
downward. Moisture should not fail during the growing season. 
IMPROVED GIANT FRENCH. A superior strain grown 
by one of California’s most successful growers of 
this most popular flower. The large double flowers 
are carried on tall graceful stems, they are unex- 
celled for cut flowers. Few flowers, so easy to grow, 
will give such a profusion of bloom for such a small 
investment, each bulb producing about a dozen 
flowers over a long period.

Not to be confused with 2nd and 3rd size bulbs so 
often offered at bargain prices.

orange and scarlet to the deepest red.
