 QUALITY 



DUTCH BULBS 



Hyacinths, Tulips, Narcissi, Daffodils and Paper Whites 



SINGLE HYACINTHS. 

 Select, First Size. 



(List of varieties best for forcing: 



L 'Innocence, white. 



Gertrude, dark rose. 



Grand Maitre, deep porcelain blue. 



Gigantea, light rose. 



Queen of the Blues, light blue. 



King of the Blues, dark blue. 



Price of any of above varieties, 

 $4.50 per 100; $40.00 per 1,000. 

 Second Size Hyacintlis, 17 cm. 



Same list of varieties as above. 

 Price, $3.25 per 100; $30.0a per 1,000. 



Third Size Hyacinths, 15 cm. 



These are good sized bulbs, 15 cm. 

 equals about 1% inch in diameter. 

 This is ihe most suitable size for pans. 

 They will give a much stronger flower 

 than the usual size of 8-10 cm., offered 

 as Dutch Bomans. I recommend them 

 as far superior. They are well worth 

 the difference in price. 



List of varieties same as the first 

 size. Price, $2.50 per 100. $22.00 per 

 1,000. 



Mixed Bedding Hyacinths, $2.25 per 

 100; $20.00 per 1,000.

PE4RS0N'S MONEYWORTH QUALITY TULIPS 



Our list is not loner, but comprises the best varieties for pots and cut flowers. If yon are not familiar with the 

 ' different varieties, we shall be glad to advise you as to which are best for pots or cut flowers, early or late, if you will 

 only tell Us for what purpose you want them. The bulbs offered are top size, the cream of the Holland fields, and should 

 not be confused with second and third sizes offered by some dealers for less money. A small tulip bulb will bloom, but 

 a large one will give a better flower, with more substance. Place at least part of your order for Pearson's Money worth
