COLCHICUMS 
Commonly called autumn crocus. However, the colchicums are much larger in leaf and flower. They are lovely planted 
among shrubs or in the large rockery and if let alone increase into large colonies in a few years. If you like fall color in 
your garden try some this year. The bulbs are shipped during the late summer months only and will bloom shortly after 
you receive them whether planted OR NOT! 
CULTURE: COLCHICUMS like other bulbs become dormant 
during summer months and are extraordinary in that the foliage 
is produced in spring but the flowers do not appear until fall. 
Plant the bulbs about 4 inches deep in any good garden soil where 
they may be left alone for years if desired. Heaviest bloom is pro- 
duced in full sun, though we do get fair results here in one-half 
to full shade. If wanted in the rock garden do not plant them too 
near their neighbors as the leaves take up considerable space in 
spring.
