Most of these little fellows establish them- 
selves very easily and multiply by way of offsets 
or seed themselves from year to year. 
A safe way to determine the depth of plant- 
ing is to take three times their diameter. 
Scilla Campanulata is perhaps the showiest 
of all; the graceful flower spikes are at least 6 
inches tall and the bells are loosely set. They 
bloom in May and the flowers are long lasting. 
The Bulbous Irises are suitable for cutting as 
well as border planting; they are quite hardy and 
bloom in June. 
Eremurus or Foxtail Lilies produce tall and 
sturdy stalks, crowned by flower spikes of two to 
three feet long, composed of closely set bell- 
shaped flowers of a pure white, a delicate pink or 
a soft yellow. The peculiarly shaped roots should 
be planted not over 5 inches deep, resting on a 
layer of sand to secure drainage. A light mulch 
will be sufficient winter cover. Fine for border 
planting and a most spectacular cutflower of long 
lasting qualities. 
They who make gardens grow, are in duty 
Sunwise and moonwise and starwise to beauty.
