. The pretty Snowdrop, " in habit white and plain," is the first of all flowers to herald the approach of spring. Long before any other flower, it shoots up its slender stem, and dis- plays its white, drooping corols, while the spotless snow still covers the shady recesses of the garden. They flourish well in any soil, and bloom best if not transplanted oftener than every three years. Being dwarf, they should be set near the edge of walks, where they show to"advantage. They also flourish well in sand or moss, or in pots or baskets. PEK DOZ. PER 100. b0 $ 30 Double flowe
