Auemones 
These inexpensive bulbs will give you more flowers for yout 
money than anything we offer in bulbs unless it is their companior 
flower, the Ranunculus. There are two kinds of Anemones, the 
single or De Caen and the double or St. Brigid. These Anemones 
are natives of eastern Europe and Asia Minor and have been greatly 
improved by hybridists to make larger and more colorful flowers. 
Soak the bulbs for an hour just before planting. Set the bulbs 
with the pointed end down and cover with 2 inches of soil. Our large 
bulbs may be planted from 6 to 12 inches apart. Above all, Anemo- 
nes insist on good drainage. Sun or partial light shade.

for $7.50. 
Prices for all below— large bulbs: 12 for $1.25, 100 for $9.00.
