FALL CATALOGUE OF BULBS THAT BLOOM FOR 1909. IS. CHIONODOXA. OR GLORY OF THE SNOW Glory ot tlje S1!0^ Once to see this floral gem is always to want it, Besem- bling somewhat Scilla Siberica. it yet differs from it and has a charm peculiarly its own. The purest, clearest tones of blue are to be found in these flowers, that appear so early that they are often overtaken by winter's last forays and be- come literally Glories in the Snow. Blue is always a scarce color among house plants, and as the Chionodoxas succeed well in the house, a pot or two of them should be grown in every window. Their greatest value, however, is for garden planting. Here they increase rapidly, and soon form great clumps that in early spring are a cloud of blue flowers in dainty sprays just long enough for cutting or to wear, They are native of high mountain regions, and perfectly hardy in the coldest part of the country, Plant two inches deep.
