We recommend them very highly for the decoration of the rock garden. 
Due to their pleasing form and remarkable color, they add great interest to 
the flower border and foundation plantings. For best effect, always plant in 
drifts of five to ten and more. Depth of planting for the small bulb species, 4” 
to 5” and 8” to 4” apart. Larger bulbs prefer a depth of 6” to 8” and 4” to 6” 
apart. These depths are for good sandy garden loam; in heavier soil, they 
should be 1” to 2” less in depth. 
We have one of the most complete collections of these species. It has 
been greatly increased and we are offering many rare and new kinds to 
charm your garden.
