You'll agree once you own them that no home with more 
than a square foot of earth is complete without these 
Stern’s Selected Spring Flowering Crocus! Many say — 
“Spring is not here until the crocus christens with its color 
the world reborn.” These Stern’s Dutch Crocus Specimens 
are unusually brilliant in color — larger in size and ex- 
tremely early to flower. The bulbs are of largest size, pro- 
ducing many flowers from a single plant. They multiply 
with amazing rapidity, increasing in number and size with 
every passing year. Once planted, they take care of them- 
selves, reward you bountifully! We recommend that you 
plant these lovely crocus liberally this fall.

Indispensable in the springtime garden. These magnificent Stern's specimens 
are unequalled in beauty of shape, trueness of color and hardy, trouble-free 
growing habits. These charming, heart-warming flowers blooming among your 
crocus and daffodils are a sight that you will remember throughout the long 
cold winter. 
CHIONODOXA (Glory of the Snow). Lively blue flowers with a white 
heart that bloom at the same time as the crocus. Create a lovely dis- 
play in either regular or rock gardens. Flowers are borne loosely on 
stems 4-5 inches high.

and in rock gardens. The little spikes are closely set with large round 
bells resembling grapes. Bloom in April.

and pink borne on erect flower spikes about 15 inches high. Bloom dur- 
ing May and early June—grow in sun or shade—even under trees. Ideal

the snow is gone. At their best in mass plantings; ideal for naturalizing. 
Do well in semi-shade or sun.

“6 to 8 inches tall, with a delicious fragrance similar to the violets. The flowers
