Snowdrops bloom a few days before the Crocus and Siberian Scilla, but last until these are nearly gone. It is especially fine when planted in clumps and masses to contrast with the deeply blue masses of the Scilla. Much used also for planting through the grass on the lawn, and for skirting woodland walks and drives. Double — White and fragrant. Very double. Single — This is just superb; its large, snowy flowers appearing in profusion, and showing great beauty. 6 for 15c; 25c per doz.; $ per 100. Scilla Siberica Hardy and fine. Blooms at the very edge of winter and laughs at storms and sleets. Beautiful little spikes of deepest blue and purest white flowers; freely pro- duced, and for a long time. Everyone who possesses a foot of ground ought to grow this. It should always be planted in groups, either in house or open garden. Blue — Superb color, deep and rich. White — Pure snow-white, contrasting splendidly. 2 of either sort for 5c; 20c per doz.; $ per 100 GIANT SCILLA — This bulb, known as Puschkiana^ is really a giant-flowered Scilla Siberica.
