Dingee Early-Blooming Crocus Crocus should be given a rich, dry soil and sunny location. The bulbs should be planted about 3 inches'deep; set singly or massed in beds. They are entirely hardy and will bloom and increase each year. A favorite plan is to raise the sod of the lawn with a trowel to the depth of 3 inches, place the bulb beneath the sod and press back into place. Crocus are also great favor- ites for house culture, giving very satisfactory results. The bulbs we offer are of improved strains of the leading and finest varieties, and are superior as regards both form and color.
