appear as though by magic in September, long after the 
leaves have ripened and gone. Fully hardy when estab- 
lished. Also will flower from the dry bulb (corm) without 
planting. perl00 per 1000

COOPERIA 
(EVENING STAR) 
Rain Lily is still another name for Cooperia 
pedunculata, a very lovely summer-flowering 
bulb. The large, fragrant, upfacing blossoms 
open pure white becoming pink-suffused. Dig 
and store like Gladiolus. A new burst of 
bloom follows each summer shower. 
$45.00 per 1000 
| CROCUS 
COOPERIA 
dabcehobeied thas CROCUS SUSIANUS (Cloth of Gold). In the 
Crimea these color the hills. The cups open 
soon to wide stars of orange-gold, laced in 
reverse with velvet brown. Far earlier than 
most other Crocuses, mid-February here if 
the weather grants any favors. A warm flow 
of mid-day sun, and Crocus Susianus is in 
full golden burst. For the moment at least, 
spring is here, even though snow-banks be 
still in shady corners. 
$35.00 per 1000 
For other early spring flowering Crocus see import lists.

DODECATHEON (SHOOTING STAR) 
SHOOTING STAR. The Shooting Star, Dode- 
catheon Meadia, is not truly a bulb, yet has 
many bulblike habits, and goes well with 
them. Clustered flowers, always fragrant, 
vary from palest pink to deepest rose. 20 
inches. Excellent in light shade, but where 
WA the soil is deep and rich, will do pretty well 
rome in sun, too. Sometimes it is called “Hardy 
Cyclamen” from the blossom form.
