OUR GIANT FLOWERING CROCUS 
We have always been known for the large size crocus bulbs we send out. 
The flowers are of much larger size than on ordinary size bulbs. Plant them in 
drifts in the border, the lawn, between shrubs and trees, etc. They furnish such 
a lot of bright colors so early in the spring.

(Daffodils) 
Early spring flowers are always so welcome and Narcissi (Daffodils) are par- 
ticularly pleasing. Plant them in drifts among shrubs and trees and in the 
flower border. Narcissi should be planted in early fall and it is always de- 
sirable to apply a light mulch after the ground is frozen.
