OF FRUIT AND ORNAMENTAL TREES, &C. 79 Crocus—In various colors. Colchicum Autumnale. Frittiliaria Imperialis. CROWN IMPERIAL—Very showy plants; are quite hardy and when the bulbs are once planted they need no further culture. Plant five inches deep, one foot apart. AURORA, CROWN ON CROWN, WILLIAM REX. CaSanthus. SNOW DROP—This, the earliest of Spring flowering bulbs, is uni- versally admired for its elegant snow-white drooping blossoms. Hyacinths. Among the bulbs used for Winter flowers, the Hyacinth stands foremost on the list. Two meth- ods are employed in flowering the Hyacinth in Winter, one in glasses filled with water, the other in pots or boxes of soil. HYACINTHS flowering ill water and TULIPS in earth Jonquils. Pretty varieties of the Narcissus, having a very agreeable fragrance; adapted to either pots or out-door culture. The bulbs being small, six or eight may be put in a six-inch pot. Polyanthus Narcissus. Beautiful early Spring flowers, produced in large clusters of white and yellow. Quite fragrant, making them very valuable as parlor or conservative ornaments. Tulips. Owing to the late Spring frost, bedding plants cannot safely be planted before the early Spring flowering bulbs are through blooming. Without these bulbs, for one or two months of beautiful Spring weather, our gardens would present a bare appearance. We know of nothing that for the amount of money invested will give a more gorgeous show during early Spring, and there is nothing more easily grown than the Tulip. They thrive well in almost any soil. Should be planted during October and Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - colora
