BOTANICAL TULIPS 
A most interesting group of wild Tulip species native in the 
mountain slopes and valleys of Central Asia and Asia Minor.

garden where thei individual beauty stands out most prom-

in fairly deep, well-drained pockets.

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 Jong after the flowers, making the plant especially valu- 
able 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. 
60c per doz.; $4.00 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 naturalizing 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. 75c per doz.; $5.00 per 100. 

GRAPE HYACINTHS (Muscari) 

SCILLA SIBIRICA, Spring Beauty 
SPRING-FLOWERING CROCUS 
Crocus are frequently the first flowers to apes in spring, com- 
ing a few days after the snow disappears. They are at their very 
best when scattered over a Iawn or planted in rows as a border 
for a bed of perennials. When used on the lawn, scatter them 
freely over the surface, then lift the sod with a trowel and slip the 
bulb underneath. Crocus may also be grown in pots or bulb pans 
and will produce a pleasing effect. The bulbs are entirely hardy, 
and the grass may be mowed without injuring the Crocus plants. 
Kathleen Parlow. Large; pure white. 
Midnight. Very dark purple; extra large. 
Pallas. White with fine lilac stripes. 
Queen of the Blues. Pure light lilac-blue. ,

or rockwork. The charming, small, star-shaped flowers are borne 
loosely on a small spike 4 to 5 inches long, and are of an attractive 
blue color. The bulbs should be planted about 3 inches apart. 
If planted in masses, close together, where they may be left un- 
disturbed, they will continue to improve year after year.

flowers with a conspicuous white center. 60c per doz.; $4.25

appears. About a month later to your surprise the flower 
stalks spring from the ground to a height of 2 to 3 feet, de- 
veloping an umbel of large lJily-shaped flowers, eight to 
twelve in number, of a delicate lilac-pink shade. The bulb
