Early Summer Bulbs, by Stephen M. Lawson - April 1997 [text rev. 1/17/98]
All of the icons for Early Summer Bulbs were obtained from the web site given below, volume 3 of 4 volumes of beautiful flowers now available. The flowers in volume 3 are shown below, together with the Japanese name, a comment by the artist, and the scientific name.
Also included in the Bulb file is an 8 pixel spacer, which permits you to thin out your flower garden. The best effect is obtained by placing the spacer at the top of each side, and left end of top and bottom. The spacer was created by modifying the larger spacers distributed by Tiger Technologies with Holiday Lights.
Ten of the flowers were chosen for the screen saver resource.
A music file is included - midi sound track from Apple's Mac OS 7.6 CD. The original included a photo tour of Japan on the CD at Mac OS 7.6/CD Extras/Movie Player Extras/PHOTOS.MOV (ゥ 1997 Apple Computer, Inc.).
Place the music in the Music Files folder, and place Early Summer Bulbs in the Bulbs Files folder in the Holiday Lights folder.

Subject: Re: Flower Icons and Holiday Lights
Thank you for visiting "Flower Icons Site". I'm very glad that you enjoy my icons.
I've made these icons and calendars in order to decorate my power Macintosh desktop, because I couldn't find my favorite flower items for the desktop on web sites.
About the Bulb file from Flower Icons volume 3.
The permission to use the icons in the file is OK. The notes is also no problem.
When I change my URL or e-mail address, I'll inform you.
