I I J HE Crocus is one of the \l/ earliest flowers of spring, e)^_® and occupies a promi. nent place in every gar» den. When planted as an edg- ing in triple lines of one or more colors, the effect is striking. No spring display surpasses that of Crocus, the broad, wavy bands of golden-yellow, striped, purple, or of pure white, when they expand their blossoms in February and March, are incomparable. In lawns and pleasure parks, planted in the grass, the Crocus is extremely effective. For several years past, Crocus, Snowdrops, Daffodils, etc., have been planted in our parks and lawns, in wild places, woodland walks, etc., to the great delight of visitors and the enhanced decoration of the parks. In one of the parks, about Golden-yellow Crocuses were used to edge off beds cut in the grass, and the gor- geous effect produced was matchless. On another occasion, 20,000 purple, white and striped Crocuses were planted in alternate lines with early Tulips, and the effect was equally beautiful. (.See cut.) * * CROCUS If!
