TEN KINDS. 



1. Crocus, White, Blue, Yellov, &c. Among the very earli- 

 est flowers, and always beautiful. 



2. Crown Imperial, Frittelaria Imperialis. A fine, early, 

 showy flower, of lily-like character, but having an unpleasant 

 odor. 



3. Daflbdil. The well-known large double yellow Narcis- 

 sus ; among the first blossoms of the season. 



4. Hyacinth. See below. 



5. Iris, Persian, &c. The varieties are numerous and beau- 

 tiful ; chiefly of various shades of blue, though some are pure 

 white, and others of a fine golden yellow. The bulbous vari- 

 eties should be taken up soon after flowering, and replanted in 

 the fall, as they are apt to rot if left in the ground. 



6. Lily, White, Tiger, &c., &c. Lilium Candidum, &c. 

 Many and beautiful varieties, well known, both wild and cul- 

 tivated.
