From the third grower I received the following letter and supplementary list of varieties : 



I have much pleasure in handing you a catalogue in which, according to your suggestion, are 

 marked the hyacinths which are much subject to the yellow disease and such which are very resistant. 

 It must, however, be understood that similar statements have only relative value. Many varieties 

 which used to be among the best trade-sorts a few years ago, have now entirely disappeared in con- 

 sequence of the yellow disease and it may be expected that the list of varieties after ten years will be 

 very much reduced. 



The following list of hyacinth varieties shows those which have entirely or nearly dis- 

 appeared in consequence of the yellow disease :
